Luca, you must think all students are geniuses.
Not sure what warranted that comment. I guess it's just easier to lash out with name calling rather than offer or attempt to defend a different opinion or engage in an intelligent debate.M-5":116qvjhc said:Luca Brasi":116qvjhc said:Why?

You are a piece of work.
