I'd suggest holding your breath before you're sliping to far
into this. Sallam may not be the Wolds most sweet-tempered
guy (unless you ask Maria), but he'll a hell of a promotor
and supporter of our hobby. Due this hobby I leared to know
some realy decent who put dedication into computer colecting,
and Sallam is for shure peer among them.

Due his nature he is prone to bite on flame bait like you're
offering. Using this isn't exactly a gentle way of cooperation.
