Tell immediately. Most Urgent..................!!!!!!!!!!

I was going to answer this. Seriously.

that is until I saw this part:

Tell immediately. Most Urgent..................!!!!!!!!!!

You would be wise not to state this in your posts. Even if it is urgent to you, realize that it is not urgent to us. Many here take offense to this as it implies to them that a) the poster thinks that his post is more important than everyone else's, and b) that the poster wants to put pressure on the volunteers who come here to help on their own free time. Just a friendly word of advice.

Now hopefully someone else will help you.
