Valdis,
I do understand your concern with me finding one of the few false positives,
due to my issues already with the community. I am trying my best now to improve
and work toward good,solid work that is of actual use to the community and avoid
shitty patches and not listening like I did for the last few months.
Sorry,
Nick
