Max,

Our friend Doug, does have a problem of staying on the subject line and
does get rather touchy about being remained about it. A simple look at
the Subject line and the subject under discussion has been changed
often. I've had that problem with him. Even when proven didn't stop him.
He just admits to it and kept on his merry way until the subject is
something more he is at ease with.

It's his way of discussing. It won't change. Best thing to do is back
away. If it is a one on one with him, it is the only way. He will take
the discussion around the bend until you'll never recognize what you're
talking about

Been there, done that! Try not to do it again..

Good advice. Merry Christmas.

Max
