LOL Groj! I wouldn't normally point out an error in the use of words in someone's post but I distinctly remember you starting a thread on Pandamonium about using words out of context and confusing people. The word you are looking for is 'naturalising', neutralising means to make something ineffective, incapable or impotent. [img]smile.gif[/img]
