I didn't reject the few (unsolicited) solutions from the minority of

Well, since ignorance seems to be your strong suit, that was probably
a good move on your part.

Well I certainly saved myself some aggro by ignoring the unsuitable
topology
suggested by your chum.

"Aggro"?

Oh, my, how cute!

If you ignored it, then there's no way you could have determined
whether it was suitable or not.

Can't help wondering whether he'd have got it right if he had known how
to
do the correct way.

Your pretending to knowledge of the _correct_ way insinuates that
you're privy to information which you obviously don't possess, since
you admit to wondering.

That makes you a phony.

Jim's made a good life for himself and his family, has certainly
contributed more than it seems _you_ ever will toward making this
world a better place in which to live, and yet all you can do is hurl
insolence from the peanut gallery.

Just a little envious, are we?

Perhaps Ian, upon completion of his engineering degree, will grace us
with an elegant solution to the hub dynamo problem ?:-)

My only regret is that I wasted time trying to help Ian. It'll not
happen again.

Thought you were running the math, not your mouth!


Gosh, just how much help was he?
