EDWARD --

Get over yourself.

I love newsgroups for hands on feedback from folks -- that's why I'm
here.

The stuff you can't get in a book.

I like to be thorough -- so what? Every project I've pursued has
ultimately been 100% and often BETTER than pro. I've done my share of
woodworking, have a complete
metalworking shop complete with CNC -- blah blah blah.

I've never built a countertop other than laminate and I've done
several that way -- again I'M HERE for "personal experiences" on
materials I haven't used for this application.


Don't be a girl.
And stop already with your pompous English.
