<br>Yeah. Ale can be a bit like "social networking for people who don't use facebook". Oftentimes, a non-answer to a technical question is exactly what it looks like - no one has an answer. I quit asking technical questions on ale years ago after I figured out I was asking stuff that no one new about. I tend to work off in the weeds so that was to be expected.<br>
