No - I didn't say this.  It was Tini who said it.  

I have looked at Tini's post.  I simply don't see how you could 
possibly have thought that I said it.  :-?

I do however agree with Tini about the problems caused in it by the 
fact that it is a rolling distro.  Ever since PCLOS I won't even look 
at another rolling distro.
