[AccessD] I just got to vent

Hey John
I love to have fun with the old warrior on this site. I never meant anything
but to just laugh with you. Yes "Gosh Darn" we get frustrated and we have
for years. But John I think we can call each other friends, at times you are
"a duff us".  Waiting for the caustic reply.

LOL, I listen.

I did say "I just gotta vent" did I not?  I haven't heard anyone say it 
isn't a bug, except for Shamil IIRC who called it "by design". And he 
doesn't bother to explain wht a bug is "by design".  In fact, isn't 
EVERY bug "by design"?  I mean we design the bug, but we normally try to 
fix them.

Tony, there's a million ways to skin a cat.  The point is that I 
shouldn't have to try a dozen cuts to find one that works.  The damned 
cat is complaining.
