Sometimes I get the impression those guys will start chucking apples (in a metaphorical way) at someone, for whatever reason... I thought it was related to disorganized thought process or not doing their homework, but from this post I don't really get any of that. So it seems TK, who normally would rib people for throwing parts at a problem, was a bit odd this time around. And yeah, here too, Dennis was right on topic here as well. He believed the OP about the start of the problem, and nailed the source.
