Hi Cheri, First, =============== "I considered posting, then decided not to. For one, I had already had a run-in elsewhere with the person who turned that into a bloodbath, and didn't care to risk another one (snip)" =============== I can imagine a LOT of people felt that way. Sad for you - ridiculous for him. His actions sabotage debate. Then, =============== "But the biggest reason was that I simply didn't know enough on one side or the other of the original post to make a worthwhile comment." =============== It wouldn't have mattered what you said you would have been harangued and called some infantile name. Some people have no decorum. Again, sad. Gary

Gary, Sometimes silence speaks louder than words. Cheri

Cheri, "silence is Golden... Golden..." Are you humming the tune? Gary

Gary, Would if I knew it. Can you whistle a few bars for me? Hey, isn't that the punchline to an old joke? Cheri

I do really thing that people should try to get along a little better and stop trying to make the other look bad. I think that everyone has a right to an opinion but that does not make the opinion right or wrong..it is just an opinion. Larry
