Session 26 April 2025

Q: (Keyhole) ...they've shown, there's a lot of research showing that high-dose thiamine achieves many benefits in neurological problems without acting as a coenzyme. So they think it might be stimulating TTP. And I want to know whether the function that they had just described is one of the reasons or is the main reason why it seems to have such benefits in these conditions which are not measurable. No one has measured, there's no changes in enzyme activity, but we are literally seeing people reverse very severe health conditions and no one understands why.

A: Many things in the body are not measurable.
How much thiamine does a person need to take to achieve high dose?
 
I wonder how many Jews/Muslims never eat pork and I wonder if that is a multi-generational habit, what impact it might have on their thiamine levels in general and I wonder how that might impact their information gathering/processing.

axj said:
Ra seems to imply that the process of restructuring the body for 4D may take several generations, which may or may not be at odds with what the C's have said.

I don't think it's at odds with what the Cs have said since they haven't said anything specific on the topic.
The C's did once discuss the basis for the Jewish prohibition against eating pork and gave the reason as the medical condition of Trichinosis:

Session 7 June 1997:

Q: The next thing is the dietary restrictions. Many cultures eat rabbits and pigs, in specific, those of Aryan extraction. The rabbit was sacred to Athena, and the Celts ate a LOT of pork. Yet, here these items are restricted from the diet of the Jews. Is there any relation between the diet as outlined here, and the Aryan genetic tendencies to conquest and domination?

A: Trichinosis used to be non-existent in Aryan types... But, mixing of genetic factors eliminated this.


Q: So, the Jews were susceptible to trichonosis, and the Aryans were not?

A: Originally.

Q: So, it was necessary for the Jews not to eat the pork, but not for the Aryans, and the mixing caused susceptibility. In a general sense, are strong Aryan genetics indicative of the necessity for the consumption of meat?

A: In a sense, but pescadorial features substitute semi-adequately.

Q: Pescadorial. Semi-adequately. What needed to be added so that the substitution would be not just semi-adequate, but totally adequate?

A: Iron/protein levels.


This point goes to the issue of who exactly were the Jews of the Old Testament, as the C's have said the Jews are not. The C's have said that the founder of the Jewish faith, Abraham, was also the same person as Moses of the Exodus. Moses is famed as the Jewish lawgiver who established the blood of the covenant with Yahweh:

Q: At the making of the Covenant at Mt. Sinai, there was a bunch of sacrificed animals, and Moses took the blood, dividing it in half, he cast one half on the altar. Taking the book of the covenant, he read it to the people, and they said 'we will observe all that Yahweh has decreed. We will obey.' And then Moses took the blood and cast it on the people saying 'this is the blood of the covenant that Yahweh has made with you containing all these rules.' What is this blood of the covenant?

A: Has to do with bloodline.

Q: So this symbolized the bloodline of the Jews?

A: No.

Q: What bloodline are we talking about here?


A: Aramaic/Aryan.

Q: Are you saying that the Jews are Aramaic/Aryan?

A: No. Jews are not bloodline categorizable, per se.


So, the C's are saying here that the Jews as a racial/religious group are not bloodline categorizable. However, the C's also told us that Abraham/Moses himself was a Hittite/Levite who were Indo-Europeans and this an Aryan sub-race:

Session 20 August 2001:

Q: All right, first question is, what is the origin of the Levites?
A: Hittites Moon Worshippers.
Q: Well, before the Hittites became Hittites, what were they?
A: Indo-europeans.
Q: What was the source of the Indo-europeans?
A: Aryan sub-race.
Q: Is there any other group the Aryans mixed with to produce the Indo-Europeans?
A: Fourth Density genetic tweak.
Q: Was Abraham a Levite?

A: Yes.

We know that various Aryan/Celtic groups, including the Scythians (who were Semitic speakers), migrated through Central Asia and Turkey into the Middle East to settle in Mesopotamia, Syria, the Levant, Canaan (Palestine), Jordan and eventually Egypt where they intermarried with the indigenous populations. This bears out what the C's said about Moses and his fellow Levites being Aramaic/Aryan.

The ancient Egyptians called these Asian Semitic groups by the generic name "Shasu". The Shasu were Semitic-speaking pastoral nomads in the Southern Levant from the late Bronze Age to the Early Iron Age or the Third Intermediate Period of Egypt. They were tent dwellers, organized in clans ruled by a tribal chieftain. Though their homeland seems to have been in the Transjordan, the Shasu also appeared in Canaan, Syria and Egypt.

Although his views have been contested, the archaeologist Donald B. Redford argued that the earliest Israelites, semi-nomadic highlanders in central Canann mentioned on the Merneptah Stele at the end of the 13th century BCE, are to be identified as a Shasu enclave. Since later Biblical tradition portrays Yahweh "coming forth from Seʿir", the Shasu, originally from Moab and northern Edom/Seʿir, went on to form one central element in the amalgam that would constitute the "Israel" which later established the Kingdom of Israel. Per his analysis of the Amarna letters, Anson Rainey concluded that the description of the Shasu best fits that of the early Israelites. If this identification is correct, these Israelites/Shasu would have settled in the uplands in small villages with buildings similar to contemporary Canaanite structures towards the end of the 13th century BC (
MJF: which is the century after that of Pharaoh Akhenaten, the pharaoh of the Exodus).

This leads me to wonder whether Moses and his band of fellow Levites eventually merged with the Shashu who dwelt in Edom and Canaan (Palestine) and by doing so, their descendants became susceptible to Trichinosis.

The Bible tells us that Moses was raised as an Egyptian prince in Pharoah's household and would thus have imbued many Egyptian cultural norms. The ancient Egyptians themselves had something of an aversion to the pig, due perhaps to its unfortunate links with the god Set who was the murderer of Osiris, and thus a negative figure, who (as related in the Coffin Text) apparently assumed the form of a black pig when attacking Horus. However, archaeological evidence has found pig bones with butchery marks on them at settlement sites throughout Egypt so there clearly was not a wholesale prohibition on the eating of pork. Nevertheless, Abraham/Moses could have brought this aversion to eating pork with him when he led the proto-Israelites out of Egypt into the Sinai wilderness.

According to Herodotus though, the Scythians also had a taboo against the pig, which was never offered in sacrifice, and apparently the Scythians loathed so much as to even keep swine within their lands. Thus, if the Shasu who eventually became the jews were originally Scythians, this would also explain why they would have banned pork and this prohibition could then have been carried over into Jewish dietary laws.


The Islamic faith was heavily influenced at its origin by Talmudic Judaism and therefore incorporated a prohibition on eating pork into Islamic dietary laws, as confirmed in the Quran:

"He (Allah -God-) has only forbidden to you dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah." (Quran, Al-Baqarah 2:173)

************************************************************************************************************************************************​

As to the process of restructuring the body for 4D, the C's have on occasions discussed the DNA changes involved in transitioning to 4th density. Here are some examples from the transcripts:

Session 16 November 1994:

Q: (L) I want to ask what is the source of the pain L__, J__ and I have been experiencing identically for the past week or so?

A: DNA changes.

Q: (L) And what is the source of these DNA changes?

A: Moving to 4th density.



Session 19 November 1994:

Q: (V) Have you been doing a lot of soul searching? (T) I've been saying that I have been at 100% depression for six or seven weeks now. (L) What is causing Terry's depression?

A: Change of DNA.

Q: (T) What brought about the change in DNA?

A: Moving toward 4th level of density reality.

Q: (L) Why does this always seem to cause pain, suffering or depression?

A: All level 1 changes do.

Q: (L) What are level 1 changes?

A: We use "level" designation to denote significance.

Q: (L) Is level 1 most significant?

A: Yes.

Q: (L) As the numbers go higher does the significance get lessened?

A: Close.

Q: (L) What is causing the pain in Jan's right shoulder since several of us have been having this exact same symptom?

A: DNA changes.


Session 10 December 1994:

Q: (L) In conjunction with DNA changes, is there any similarity between the human race and the idea of transformation relating to populations such as grasshoppers into locusts?

A: Yes.

Q: (L) When grasshoppers turn into locusts, they swarm when their population gets too large.

A: All is part of natural cyclical process.

Q: (L) Was the DNA change that we are experiencing programmed into us so that after so many generations these changes would just sort of kick in?

A: Close.

Q: (L) So, we all selected certain bodies before we incarnated that would be prime for this programming?

A: Are you ready to be hermaphrodites?
[
MJF: I think this is one change everyone would notice regardless of their state of knowledge]

Q: (L) Is that what we are going to be?


A: Wait and see.

Session 11 October 2014:

(L) It's getting to be regular. Okay, now... I printed out some session extracts from a few years back because I started thinking about them in relation to trying to find some answers to certain questions that I'm going to get to in a minute. The first one is from September 23rd, 2000. I was asking about DNA and about INTRONS and so forth:

Q: ... It is now known that there are pieces of DNA within a gene that are not translated into protein. These intervening sequences, or INTRONS, are somewhat of a mystery, but appear to be a very common phenomenon." Now, is this thing they are talking about, these INTRONS, are these the core that you were talking about?

A: In part.

Q: What about this ALU repeat with over 300,000 copies of the same base pair sequence. What is it?

A: Tribal unit.

Q: What is a tribal unit?

A: Sectionalized zone of significant marker compounds.

Q: What does this code for?

A: Physiological/spiritual union profile.

Q: Could you define "tribal" for me?

A: You define.
---


(L) Well, I think that obviously "tribal" means physiological spiritual union profile, and that that may have something to do with what we were talking about at a previous session when we asked about Caesar's soul group. Physiological spiritual union profile would be what defines what tribe you belong to, but it's a spiritual tribe and not necessarily specifically physical. You can grow into it according to some criteria... “graduate” was the term used. Am I correct here about a tribal group being like a soul group? Is that an accurate way of putting it?

A: Very close.

Q: (L) Is there anything that can get me closer?

A: In some cases there is also a supersensory component.

Q: (L) What is a supersensory component?

A: Externally driven mutation.

Q: (L) Externally driven by what?

A: Most often by the occupying soul itself.

Q: (L) So are you saying that if a soul selects a body or gets a close frequency match to a body that it wants to use, that it can also modify that body for its own purposes if it needs to and if the DNA match isn't quite to its taste or purposes?

A: Yes.

Q: (Andromeda) So our souls can cause mutations?

A: Yes.

Q: (Perceval) Does that happen pre-birth?

A: No, it can happen once the soul is seated and as needed.

Q: (L) So, what are some of the processes that can effect this in a physical way?

A: Diet is one. Also "arrangement" to contract the needed sickness.

Q: (Pierre) So you contract a sickness because the soul wants to learn something and experience something, and it's through this sickness that this learning will occur?

A: No. The soul and its helpers wants to trigger DNA modification!

Q: (L) They're saying no, that it's far more pragmatic. Okay, next question... I'm never going to get to my questions that I have! [laughter] Okay, when you say, "the soul and its helpers", what the heck are the soul's helpers?

A: Tribal unit members both in the body and out.

Q: (L) So if you're a member of a tribal unit, you are in a way connected via DNA connections or signals or frequencies with your other tribal members, whether they are incarnated or not? Is that what we're saying here?

A: Pretty much; no man is an island!

Q: (L) Okay, now, let me get back to my questions. In the rest of this session excerpt I have here, I asked:


---
Q: What does the rest of the DNA code for that is not coding for structural genes. What else can it be doing?

A: Truncated flow.

Q: Truncated flow of what?

A: Liquids.

Q: Liquids from where to where?

A: What is your sense?

Q: Well, what liquids?

A: Time for your input.

Q: Do some of these...

A: No. Not alright: we asked you a question!

Q: Okay. Truncated flow of liquids. I'm not even sure what that means. (A) Maybe something was flowing and something cut it off and stopped it and it cannot be developed. It means that something was cut. (L) Does truncated flow mean a flow of liquid that has been stopped?

A: Yes. Because of design alteration!

Q: Is this liquid that has been truncated a chemical transmitter?

A: Yes.

Q: And would this chemical transmitter, if it were allowed to flow, cause significant alterations in other segments of the DNA?

A: Yes.

Q: So, there is a segment of code that is in there, that is deliberately inserted, to truncate this flow of liquid, which is a chemical transmitter, or neuropeptide, which would unlock significant portions of our DNA?

A: Close Biogenetic engineering.

Q: I assume that this was truncated by the Lizzies and cohorts?

A: Close, but more likely Orion STS designers.

Q: Okay, can you tell us what this specific liquid or transmitter was truncated?

A: Think of the most efficient conductor of chemical compounds for low wave frequency charge.

Q: (A) Well, gold is one... (L) Acetylcholine?

A: No.

Q: (L) Water?

A: No.

Q: Saline?

A: Closer. It is a naturally bonding combination.
---

(L) And then I gave up, because I was absolutely and completely clueless about where they were going, and I said I'd have to research it. And then, after I gave up on that line, I asked:
---
Q: Was my insight that I had one night that, at some point in time something may happen that will turn genes on in our bodies that will cause us to physically transform, an accurate perception of what could happen at the time of transition to 4th density?

A: For the most part, yes.

Q: Are there any limitations to what our physical bodies can transform to if instructed by the DNA? Could we literally grow taller, rejuvenate, change our physical appearance, capabilities, or whatever, if instructed by the DNA?

A: Receivership capability.

Q: What is receivership capability?

A: Change to broader receivership capability.

Q: (A) That means that you can receive more of something.

A: Close.

Q: (A) It means how good is your receiver.

A: Yes.

Q: (L) What is your receiver? The physical body?

A: Mind through central nervous system connection to higher levels.
---

(L) So this takes us back to what they were just saying a minute ago about the soul being able to change DNA itself, or with its tribal unit helpers; that is, you can change your DNA through "Mind through central nervous system connection to higher levels." Now then, going back to this little bit right here about the naturally bonding combination, "the most efficient conductor of chemical compounds for low-wave frequency charge." Well, in another session they made the remark that DNA was a superconductor, and that DNA could also have a core of light. Now, what just happened to make me start thinking about all this was that there was an article: ‘Viruses convert their DNA into liquid form to facilitate cell infection.’

Viruses convert their DNA into liquid form to facilitate cell infection

L) So, liquid DNA... What we have here is a little bit of a confirmation of what the C's were saying way back when, that DNA can turn from a solid to a liquid – the truncated liquid reference in the context of genetic engineering - to infect a cell. But we also know that DNA can also produce beneficial changes. The likelihood is that we have DNA that infected us at some point in time. It truncated the flow of some other DNA that's in our cells already there, but it isn't doing anything because it's been blocked by an infection that inserted introns of blockages. The possibility exists, I am surmising, that at some point in time, this could be changed or reversed possibly - probably - virally. Now, am I on to something here?

A: Oh indeed! The times ahead will be most interesting especially if the network both expands to the full tribal unit strength, and many others take the initiative to move up to the next stair step.

Q: (L) So, in a sense, what you're saying is that there is a need for the network to expand as in connecting chakras and so forth which is probably what helps with these “helper” things described a few minutes ago. When people are connected, they can help each other, both in and out of the body to make DNA changes and changes in their whole system. So, that's important. Also, people need to graduate when they get these DNA changes going on in their bodies that are helped by their helpers because of their connecting chakras because the network has strength. Does that make sense, everybody?

(Pierre) More members, and...

(L) And more involved, more doing.

(Chu) Not necessarily quantity, though. Because it says strength.

(Perceval) Well, that's the question: What is the full tribal unit strength?

(L) Does that means quantity, and/or quality?

(Data) Or both?

A: Both.

Q: (Pierre) So when you reach this critical mass, it means you can have this influence, you can have this soul group influence on all the members and trigger these changes?

(L) Is that what you're saying here?

A: Yes!

Q: (L) When the tribe reaches critical mass, it'll start changing people's DNA.

(L) So, it's very, very important if people want to make this transition to be like the wise virgins: keep the faith, and keep doing, keep putting one foot in front of the other day after day even though they don't see any immediate benefits for themselves. Is that what we're getting to here?

A: Yes.

Q: (L) Okay.

(Perceval) Does the full tribal unit strength have anything to do with Gurdjieff's mention of 200 people?

A: Close enough.

Q: (L) And there was something else I wanted to ask that you guys made me think of... I had something, and it slipped out of my brain. I'm having a senior moment... OH! Is this full tribal unit strength capacity kind of what you meant way back when you talked about "broader receivership capability", that it's not simply restricted to an individual, but that it's like creating a net that is kind of like an array of antennas that...

(Perceval) The signal received is spread throughout the array...

A: Yes yes yes!

Q: (L) Okay.

(PoB) This full tribal unit strength that affects progress and changes DNA and so on, does it happen progressively, or is it like yes or no?

(L) You mean like on or off?

(PoB) Yes.

A: Critical mass much involved.

(L) I would say there are SOME individual cumulative things, but the big changes depend on critical mass.

A: Yes.

Q: (L) So we can each be working on ourselves individually with diet, cold therapy, with our networking, with getting rid of our emotional baggage, learning how to get along, etc. But all of that is really just kind of like preparatory for a phase transition?

A: Yes.

Q: (Pierre) And how many percent of this full tribal strength have we reached right now? [laughter]

A: Not enough obviously.

Q: (PoB) Will we know when we reach it?

(Perceval) Yeah, Pierre will grow a tentacle.

A: You will know indeed!


And then there is the role that the acquisition of knowledge plays in the process:

Q: (Gaby) Will the group members that will be or have been vaccinated with this technology, can they do something else to protect themselves?

A: Your program is good if combined with knowledge and awareness. Knowledge itself changes DNA.


[...]

(Pierre) I have another question about DNA. In previous sessions, it was mentioned that you Laura and Joe for example had a dozen or more DNA strands. Are these extra DNA strands of a material nature?

(Joe) No.

(Pierre) Do these extra DNA strands have electromagnetic properties?

A: Yes

Q: (Pierre) Do they act in a fractal way?

A: Yes

Q: (Pierre) Do they enable a 'deeper' access to the information field?


A: Yes

[…]

A: The changes are near as witnessed by this desperate push for control.
 
Is it a coincidence that Jews and Muslims are forbidden from eating pork?
Sure a good point, we can add to the mix that Romans were honoring their deceased ones with pigs too. Quite ironically, the study is from Israelis' scientists. (source May 13, 2025) :

Evidence of a Roman ritual with pig jaws found among remains of a legionary camp​


In February 2024, the discovery of the camp of the Legio VI Ferrata was announced at the site called Legio at the foot of Tel Megiddo, in Israel. The site was the permanent military base of more than 5,000 Roman soldiers for over 180 years, from 117–120 to approximately 300 CE.

Now archaeologists reveal, in a study published in the journal ‘Atiqot, that among the findings made during excavations in the Roman camp there is evidence of an ancient funerary ritual carried out by the legionaries, which was known from written sources but for which no remains had ever been found.

Among the different finds at the site, they discovered a shallow pit containing the jaws, maxillae, and teeth of at least thirteen domestic pigs, which had been carefully buried. No complete bodies, only these parts of the head.

Analysis of the remains ruled out that they had been consumed as food or that they were part of the camp’s everyday food waste, since there were no signs of cooking, no carnivore marks, nor signs of damage caused by rodents, and the sediment indicated that they were deposited in a single planned event.

The zooarchaeological study revealed that jaws predominated in a 3-to-1 ratio over maxillae, and that the pigs’ ages ranged from 6 to 18 months, when they reach maturity and the appropriate size for consumption—an indication that they were deliberately selected for the ritual. Cut marks found on some of the bones indicate that the animals were slaughtered and defleshed before their jaws were buried.

Why pigs, and why only the jaws?​


Pigs were very important to Roman soldiers; they were their main source of food and carried symbolic meaning, representing strength and masculinity. For example, the wild boar was the emblem of Legio X, another famous Roman legion.

But why were only the jaws buried? In other Roman archaeological sites in Jerusalem, concentrations of pig jaws have also been found, so it must have been a common practice. However, this is the first time that jaws have appeared in a legionary cemetery.

Authors such as Varro or Pliny the Elder mention purification rituals in which pigs played a symbolic role. Even in the sacramentum militare, the sacred oath taken by Roman soldiers, a pig was sacrificed to seal the commitment of loyalty to the emperor. In offerings to Mars, it was part of the sacrificial trio along with a ram and a bull.

But the researchers believe that in this case it is a different type of ritual—specifically one of the ceremonies known as silicernium and cena novendialis, funerary banquets held next to the tombs in honor of the deceased and to purify the grave, which included animal sacrifices, especially pigs, as a required act to legalize the burial.

After cremating the dead, the Romans would purify the site by sacrificing a pig and sharing a ritual meal, the researchers say. This finding could be the first archaeological evidence of this custom in the region.

How much thiamine does a person need to take to achieve high dose?
Its depends on the form that is used, and there is no real objective definition.

Given that the RDA sits between 1-1.5mg/day, anything above 10x that amount could technically be considered "high dose".

However, in practice "high dose" usually falls in the realm of 100x - 2000x the RDA, depending on the form used.

Cheaper thiamine salts are often required in doses of at least 500mg, but often can be much higher. More bioavailable forms like TTFD, benfotiamine or sulbutiamine have a therapeutic effect at lower doses.

Benfotiamine: 300-1800mg
TTFD/sulbutamine: 100-600mg

I'm unsure if it has been brought to your attention but when viewing the forum on dark mode, your posts are laregly unreadable due to the constant changing of text colors. I assume this is done when typing to try to emphasize various things, but the result seems to have the opposite effect in that some colors can't be read at all against the black background.

I concur. I circumvent it by highlighting the text and putting my glasses down to be able to get as close to the screen of my laptop as possible in order to be able to read what is written. Rather cumbersome but it works...

Is it fine if we start at TTFD 600mg? Or should we start at 100mg?
 
Is it fine if we start at TTFD 600mg? Or should we start at 100mg?
No, TTFD is way too powerful to start at 600mg. 600mg is the higher end for people with severe neurogenerative conditions/dysautonomia/digestive issues. Best to start with 100mg, or even half a cap at 50mg and gradually build up.

Any thiamine protocol should be paired with 1. B complex, 2. Magnesium and most often 3.Potassium

Otherwise someone is likely to run into uneccessary issues/symptoms.
 
I've noticed that cooking meat in an air fryer removes too much fat. We are going to start cooking meat more in a pan with onions, and for carbs, if any, a few small potatoes, black beans, carrots, or organic non-wheat noodles, which can absorb any liquid fat.

I usually cook on cast iron. Air fryer when I’m lazy or busy, but I hate how much fat it removes. But what I hate more is the idea of transferring all that fat and gunk to my food afterwards. So I literally just splash olive oil and melted butter on top of my cooked food to make up for it. And yet it’s nowhere near the amount at the bottom of my air fryer, so I’m probably not getting enough fat.

Either way, I’m adjusting to my diet pretty well so far. Most of my carbs come from blackberries I sometimes allow myself to eat.

This is where it gets tricky for me: I feel like now I’m caring too much. I hate the idea of restricting food and over analyzing everything.

Sometimes I’m sad and all I want is a pint of ice cream. Of course I don’t give in, but then I actually feel guilty if I eat 6oz of blackberries/raspberries in a day because of the carbs and sugar.

I don’t know where I’m going with this; I guess we can take this as a little update on how my new diet is going.

Point taken. I like to put the extracts from the transcripts in a different colour since I feel it makes it easier to distinguish my own comments from the transcript narrative, particularly if the commentary is quite a long one. I am not unique in doing this as I have seen other posters doing the same. I once had another forum member point out that it was not easy distinguishing my comments from quoted material and transcript extracts. That is why I started using a different colour scheme for the transcripts and other quoted material.

I have tended to use blue (in italics) for the transcript extracts, highlighting in bold passages which I think are the most pertinent to the point being discussed (not always successfully looking at my last post - which was done late at night and in a hurry :-)). Indeed, I see that the administrators also use a light blue for the 'Trending content' shown at the bottom of the page. I appreciate that everyone's eyes are different and some people may have issues with distinguishing certain colours*, particularly when viewing script against a light or dark background. I will try experimenting with different colours to see if that helps.

*I knew a chap who could not see the colour red, which made driving with him a nightmare when approaching a red traffic light :lol:.

Please note that I view the forum in light mode rather than dark mode, so the issue is not readily apparent to me. Anyway, thank you for pointing this out.​

That's not our choice, it's the default color that XenForo uses for its software. I agree with Jones, using quote boxes to distinguish between your words and quoted material is the most practical.

That is interesting. When I transpose passages from the transcripts it sometimes switches to a light blue colour when I cut and paste the text. I often wondered why this was. This may now explain it.

I appreciate that everyone's eyes are different and some people may have issues with distinguishing certain colours*, particularly when viewing script against a light or dark background. I will try experimenting with different colours to see if that helps.

*I knew a chap who could not see the colour red, which made driving with him a nightmare when approaching a red traffic light :lol:.

Please note that I view the forum in light mode rather than dark mode, so the issue is not readily apparent to me. Anyway, thank you for pointing this out.​

No problem, I just wanted to make you aware of it cause I can tell you put time and effort into your posts, and I didn't want that effort to get wasted.
