Hey Ren and the rest of you who I totally respect and admire ... I'm sorry for the following ...
MichaelStroke:When I gave an opinion about programs that do the thinking for you, I explained how I felt about it in clear, rational, and respectable terms. I even told the person that I hope her hand recovers soon, that it takes some intelligence to make a program like that, and charity to distribute it for free.

Let me be one to say you're full of BS, either that or just too stupid to realize you have totally and completely insulted someone. You called me a cheat for writing such a program and everyone else that uses it idiots and cheats.
We all solve problems differently, Stroker. I have a very strong math base. Writing a computer program requires this. So, when I am faced with a problem presented to me by a computer program, That gives me numbers like distance, elevation and wind power, I'm going to figure out what it's after by determining the equations it's using. Far from "idiot status".
So, does having the advantage of knowing I'm playing a computer game that uses mathematics to determine the result make me a cheat, or merely smarter than you? Does sharing my talents with others make me and those users idiots and cheats because we want to come up with the answer faster than one can using some other method?
One can cut a board using a hand saw or a power saw. Is the person that used the power saw cheating, or merely using the most efficient tool to handle the job at hand?
Of course, in your alleged mind, you allegedly think the power saw user cheats, just like those that will use a program that will perform the same calculations one can run on a calculator or with a pencil and a sheet of paper a cheater. Many will agree with you ... many won't.
It's just your approach lacked any respectability towards me and those that use my program. You were simply rude and attacked me and every user of my program personally. You're an effin' tool if you really (and allegedly) think you were respectful.
Like they say, opinions are like a-holes ... everyone's got one ... but in your mamma's case, she has at least two!
