Yeah, I'm not sure what you were politely disagreeing with in your 
previous post, though.  The link you posted above says NRPNs and RPNs 
consist of "three controller change messages", but in fact, it is 
referring to the first two CC's to create an RPN or NRPN, and the third 
is the value to be changed.  So when I said "NRPNs consist of two CC's" 
that part was correct, and when I said "...so I guess you won't be 
implimenting any double CCs!", that was based on your repeated 
statement that you will not be implimenting NRPNs.  So, with that in 
mind, I don't really know what you are politely disagreeing with.

As for my name, I'd prefer Inky, or just about anything other than my 
real name, because in the past I have been the victim of cyber-stalkers 
of varying levels of derangement, the most deranged of which was a 
homeless man who used public library computers to post bizarre bigoted 
rants to usenet about the need to burn witches and homosexuals at the 
stake.  Needless to say, these posts were not too popular with anybody, 
but unlike most, I did not respond to scold him, I responded to make 
fun of him, and that seemed to make all the difference as he began 
obsessing over me until finallly culimating in spray-painting my 
mothers fence because he thought I lived there, after he scoured the 
net to find traces of indentifying data pertaining to me.  

So, although it is fairly easy to find out my real name if one really 
wants to (which you will when I finally get around to ordering my Hawk 
kit, anyway), I would rather not make it so easy that anyone who is not 
determined to find out, won't.  Of course I'm not concerned about you 
knowing my name, since you don't come across as the deranged cyber-
stalker type, but since this is a public forum I would rather it not be 
used here.
