can you please stop reposting the same mail over and over again.
if you don't get an answer to a question, it is for a reason.
for example:
- people don't understand the question
- people don't think it is worth their time to answer
- people think your question has already been answerd
- people think that it is your job to figure this out
by yourself for your own good
- people think you worry about something pointless
- people don't care about answering to somebody
asking questions that should be discussed with
an adviser or supervisor.
- people think that a mailing list is not like a temple
where you can have a priest bless your input file
for publication of the results in nature or science.
- people are annoyed of you.
- (there are probably more reasons)
reposting the identical question won't
help in any of these cases. on the contrary.
thanks,
axel.
