Richard -- no-one sane carries on an extended discussion with someone they [claim to] consider a "stupid liar". So which are you? Not sane? Or stupid enough to try to score points off someone who is incapable of conceding them? Or lying when you describe Peter? You must surely have better things to do. Meanwhile, you surely noticed that Peter is running rings around you. Peter -- you surely have better things to do. No-one sensible is reading the repetitive stuff. Decades, and myriads of articles, ago people here tried to help you knock your points into shape, but anything sensible is swamped by the insults. Free advice, worth roughly what you are paying for it: step back, and summarise [from scratch, not using HHH and DDD (etc) without explanation] (a) what it is you think you are trying to prove and (b) what progress you claim to have made. No more than one side of paper. Assume that people who don't actively insult you are, in fact, trying to help. -- Andy Walker, Nottingham.
