And also welcome to the UseNet, where just claiming that you are an
expert
without proof or identity means you will be doubted. Colonel K claims to
be
an expert, but for all we know he could just be a floor sweeper. What
has
he
said that I should take his word over others who post here?

Then that's just the way it will have to stay. I have my own compelling
reasons for posting anonymously on certain subjects. I have and will
continue to post with my real name on other subjects. Mr. Herbert knows who
I am and may vouch for my expertise if he so wishes, while maintaining my
anonymity.

But why does mean you can't identitfy what type of job you held? And should
we take your opinion over others on just your say so. Do you do that for
other people yourself?

Either way, it just doesn't matter to me anymore. Too many self-styled
"experts" here who aren't willing to budge from their belief in their own
knowledge.

???? What is the diffirence between you and them? You come and post without
identifing yourself and then get upset because we don't accept what you say
as the automatic truth. Even with Mr. Herbert vouching for you I would like
to know that you are not working for one of the companies bidding for OSP.
And for sure if you do work for a company that is bidding on OSP, that alone
is a reason to take everything you say with a grain of salt. I hope you can
realize why that would be.
