oops, hit the wrong key there.

was almost going to ask Dave what he thought of the suggestion I made above lost in the mists of posts.. then decided not to bother since
a) he's already clearly made the suggestions he wants to make and doesn't seem that interested in mine and
b) I've almost lost the will to live.

was also thinking about re-iterating my point about the difference between actual risk of physical harm and annoyance, and why I think they are separate issues... but then see b) above...

oh well.

not sure where dog eyesight has to do with anything. also not sure why somebody thought Dave lives in the states, when he doesn't, but a misunderstanding methinks. easy done, no need to nitpick... ah, but it's mudcat!!
