Well Burns Night is only just past, so here's a wee bit of the bard:

"O wad some Power the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us!
It wad frae monie a blunder free us
An foolish notion"

Or in more modern English

"if only we could see ourselves as others see us - it would save us
from
many foolish notions and blunders".

Thanks for the feedback on our wasted efforts.

I believe it's the first actual comment that either project has had from
you
- certainly, I can't find a single word of support, suggestion or feedback
from you in any of the xPL group archives.

Perhaps next time something slightly more constructive than "bastard
child"
or "Mr Bloaty Bloat" would actually help build something closer
to your
needs.

Ian.
