   My last chit chat with you over this was so long ago that may be the reason   
   for the no 4.52 you speak of instead of 4.5 Holger.  Everything I have under   
   the OS/2 pile of boxes I still have is at the latest 4.52 version of whatever   
   prior to ECS.  I have paid for the ability to journey to ECS from the formal   
   even IBM team testcase crew for OS/2 and qualify for the 'swapit pit' but   
   haven't had the time for LOTS of other things I have to do and the refusal of   
   other non-IT 'bossits' to allow me to 'uppit' their stuff for professional   
   other scientic method work they do that stuff I created MUST still keep doing.   
      
   No money for the least expense anyone can afford to keep looking up in life in   
   IT, sigh.  When you are FORCED to keep spending on call 24 hours a day for the   
   rest of your life and never paid for anything you do.  But still do it day   
   after day to carry everyone else you meet upward.  Because it's just fine to   
   make a profit but really evil to poke people in the side or back and lie cheat   
   and steal from them.
