Well it's me again. I'm sorry if my appology about my english is bothering
you but I said that because I mean it. The fact is that I got a few mails
about my language and they weren't very pleasent to read. If you think my
english is good enough then I can say just one thing. Thanks god at least
one. Beleive me this is the first mail in which my english is mentioned as
something good. So I'll never write that appology about my language again.
I hope I didn't iritate you to much, If I did then I'm sorry I just wanted
to help.

Janko
