RHC: Yup, I had one customer exactly like that. I'll go to the ends of
the earth to make people happy when it is possible; however, some
people are just like that. No matter what you do, they don't see
things from any "side" except their own. I eventually "survived" this
client although in his case it was the location of his motions. It
pushed my patience to the very snapping point; however, I finally made
him happy at great expense of time and energy, even going to far as to
mark his file in my filing cabinet with the usual system number, and
"customer from hell". Surprisingly, he has since sent me many other
people for alarms and subsequent personal interface with him has been
ok......

You just cant tell sometimes....but I think it pays to work it out....
