While I have respect for both of you, Joe and Don, didn't anybody ever tell you not to volunteer for anything?!?!

You both have been around the forum long enough to know what it is like - and then you complain about it once you (voluntarily) go over to the other side of the fence????

Well, I just don't like rudeness - that is my "complaint". Don't like it in word, print, or deed. And I don't respond well to it.

You can complain about things. But it should be done in a more "mature" manner rather than blaming others for what they "perceive" to be flaws in the "game mechanics" or lack of "expertise" in the software guys.

When it comes to software, I follow the old adage:
Upgraded software or new patches = fixed some of the old problems AND added new ones (at no extra charge).

I was in the electronics industry in the 80's and I had to live by this or go nuts.

Does that M.I. refer to the Mobile Infantry?

Isn't that something like "Tide", or "Dreft", to clean your clothes with?

That's a negative, Private Rico. Now report to Lt. Rasczak for extra duty. On the bounce, trooper!

But it did wonders for MI morale that the last voice they would hear before dropping was female.

The M.I. guys I got to work with had certain traits in common:1.Very high I.Q.,2.Immensely dry sense of humor, and 3. True indifference to Army regs..
They usually dressed like a combination of Hawkeye Pierce and "the Good Humor man".(So help me, I have a pic of one wearing an all white "ice cream suit" looking outfit!)
These guys provided my unit the intel for our deployments.
Only screwed us once.
They provided the beer.
