Macloud,

Sorry but I made it an 'unsticky' so it dropped back into the midst of time.  It may even have slipped-off-the-end, so it doesn't exsist anymore.

I did this because I've the feeling that this forum was/is becoming 'anti-ladder' and the sticky didn't help either.

Basically, the guiding principle behind the rules is that if a task can be reasonably and practically done from the ground, then that's how it should be done.

Ladders should only be used as a last resort; and then only under certain circumstances.

Before anyone says that I am wrong, I can back the above statement up with references from the rules.

Is there anything you specifically want to know?

cheers
