I hope the purpose if this post was to vent .. and I hope that you are  
now vented. Aside from this you just wasted the time of anyone who has  
actually read your post, hoping that there would actually be some  
relevant content to read. Instead you can shouted, which several  
people have asked you not to do. Lester next time you are about to  
click "send" on a mail where you have capitalized entire words, please  
take a deep breather and hit deleted instead.

PS: How about instead sending a mail to the firebird foundation, to  
which you seem well conntected, and see if they can help?
