So to Jim Menning, and you Mr Brodbeck, if all that makes me "not a good guy",
and one of "the jerks", then sobeit. All I did, as I always do, is try to help
the guy. All I wanted was a civil response. It was only after the less than
polite ( in my opinion ) responses that I received from the OP, that I got
annoyed.

But hey-ho. Bad day now over. Tomorrow's another day ...

I gave you the opportunity to prove you were a good guy, and not one of the jerks.

You made an unnecessary reference to "the Americans" in your response here. A
more proper statement would have been that other "well-intentioned responders"
were confused. Rather than drag nationalities into the equation, how about just
clearing up the confusion that you claim exists? Providing the pictures to a
common location could have enlightened all.

But the real bottom line here is: Did you follow up to make the pictures
available?

Again, here's the challenge: Prove to us you are the "good guy" as you initially
appeared to be.

Thank you.




Aw geez, Jim. Give him a break. I know that he's responded in a helpful manner to
my requests in the past. His responses to others has always been respectful and
informative. He's a daily poster. He apologized and explained in depth. What
more do you really want?

I don't feel I'm being too hard on him. I came into this thread after he had become
hostile, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who was curious to see his pictures to see
exactly what the original poster was asking about. Truthfully, I'd like to see how
his knot differs from the one I had pictured in my mind. And if so many others in
the thread were confused also, wouldn't it be helpful for him to share with all of
us? It's beneficial to all readers to see the outcome, otherwise all responses might
as well be done via email rather than even being discussed here.
