Jim, learn to speak correctly, please. I think it would have been better for all concerned if you had said, on each occasion, something like: "I tried out his suggestions and they didn't work the way I wanted." My suggestions worked more than fine for myself and for many others, or so it would seem, but not for you. You have made a handful of absolute statements that appear to be 100 percent this or that, and I have refuted them at least to the points where they are leaking and you have start bailing water. This is what happens when ideas are half matching and half not. . .! Get used to it. . .please. Stop making such absolute statements as iPad cannot do this or that, and start making statements such as the iPad doesn't do this in some way that I would prefer, such as. . .then be specific. I did what I did. . .you can't actually deny that I did these things but you CAN say that this is not exactly what _I_ had in mind when I said the words that prompted you to try those things. There is a spirit of cooperation that has been lacking from the get- go and it is both between you and Apple and between you and me. It would be nice, very nice, if we could fix that up a little.

Well, I guess we both suffered in this regard because I’m also just back from a trip yet I made two long trips to the mall to try out his suggestions and they didn’t work. If I had thought it was just a B session I surely wouldn’t have bothered to make the trips.
