Grump on....
Hello
I'm back.
Some members and a mod were asking earlier today what on earth I stand for in my various posts.
Can I respectfully point you all to tonight's Grumpy Old Men by way of a partial explanation and some mitigation. For a fuller picture of where I'm coming from, please refer to the rest of the series.
Thankyou and good night.

And yes, I left my machine on. and yes, it probably had Scoobynet open in IE.
Is that enough detail or do you require more? (please don't say yes)
