Are you my mother or did you just go to the same school???

Well put Craig. Another thing to remember is that unless the phrase was whispered, you shouldn't assume that any percieved stinky comment is directed at you. Until I started coming to the forums and reading other peoples views, I used to stink the cogs all the time. Everytime the cogs attacked us I would stink them, it was never directed at the toon in my company even when they were using bike horns.
