Not wishing you to be other than "pleasant to the group," I offer this
humble link to placate your implied threat:http://www.faa.gov/licenses_certific...certification/


Larry
What implied threat?

"if u help about this subject 'i will be pleasent to group member"

Implicit in that statement is what he will do if I don't help.

Ah...it *might* for a person whose native language is English, but
highly unlikely for a person whose native language is not English.

I'm only familiar with Spanish, Latin, French, and Japanese. Note I
said *familiar* and not fluent which I am a very long way from
achieving in any of them. OTOH after several seasons of working
around pickle stations as a kid I can swear fluently in Spanish.:-))

If you ever read computer manuals that have been translated from
Japanese to English and noted what appear to be mistakes you should
see a literal translation. I came across a site dealing with RFID
tags and their operation. Most of it is a literal translation and is
very difficult to understand. You have to guess at what they were
trying to get across.


I'd bet a hundred dollars his English is better than your Turkish!

Absolutely. That's why I pointed him in the right direction.
Hopefully, someone can point out the implication of his statement, and
his English will improve. I would expect him to be appreciative for
both of my attempts to "help."
