	Anonymous  #514844  Sat, 17 May 08 02:00 PM Yes, but is it OK to use it in this context?     Anonymous

	Avangi  #514926  Sat, 17 May 08 05:11 PM Hi, Anon, I read your line five times before I realized your word is "unrelated."  I read it as "unrelenting," because of the context.  Do you really mean, "unrelated"??  It doesn't seem very "confrontational."   - A.    Avangi

	Anonymous  #514972  Sat, 17 May 08 07:51 PM Oh yes, "unrelenting" probably fits better than "unrelated", thanks!     Anonymous
