It is NOT my intention to "insult" anyone - I do not consider disagreeing to be insulting. And I have already apologised for opening the door to the possibility of this mistake being made. It is also NOT my intention for there to be anything for "blame" to be attached to. We are all equally to 'blame' for not solving this problem sooner! It would be pointless for one person to take on more blame than another ...and wiser still to avoid using the word "blame", no? My intentions are to make it clear to the 'uninitiated' that these things (WAV playback etc.) *ARE* possible - and to encourage greater teamwork to resolve them. It is rare for a non-techie to have an ideal opportunity to make such a great and positive difference to an otherwise technical project. > > anal retentive > >You mean asshole? hee hee - on a mailing list this large, I knew SOMEONE wouldn't be able to resist that joke ;) "Anal retentive" is a Freudian term used to stereo-type people. I believe the actual definition is something like "one whose primary value system developed during the potty* stage" * In case "potty" does not translate - it is an English term for the little plastic training toilet used by small children. A quick search turned up this page which is more precise on the subject - a typically anally-retentive response to a humerously anally-retentive question :) http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a940211.html >(No, please, take no offense, as you don't want us to take any offense >from your posts) None taken, irrespective of my previous posts :) >Man, do YOU have an attitude problem! Only when compared to others who have a different value system to me. But I suppose at that level, everybody has some form of problem with their value system. Pesemists and Realists (and also Optimists) often find it difficult to relate to each other on issues which require team effort. But it is precisely that diversity that is makes a team of individuals successful in creating a good-sounding end result. >I used to be like you, you know. Wouldn't/couldn't take no for an answer >and hard-headed as hell. Back in the days when I was 4. According to: http://psychology.about.com/library/weekly/aa111500b.htm that makes you a "Phallic" ...apparently!? ...I never knew that before! ...they say you learn somethng new every day :) Thanks for your help. The more we all work together, the quicker we will find a solution :) BC Received on 2003-09-03 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
