ecclesand, perhaps you don't come often enough to this forum to see how it's degenerated. There were never any issues in here before a certain cadre of malcontents made it their home away from home. The gloves came off in here ages ago, sorry to say. Reminding you that "they started it" may seem a weak defense, but there it is. There can be no doubt from any imaprtial readers of these forums, which camp is the more aggressive, more negative, and more insulting than the other. I decided a while back to start responding in kind so they can (maybe) start to see what they themselves are doing in here, maybe "shock the conscience" (if they have one) so to speak.
That one silly insult is *nothing* in my book compared to constantly having your reputation/honor/trustworthiness, built up over years and years of being active in the community becaoming a fairly trusted source for good information, be trashed by a few trolls-come-lately who know a lot less than they think they do, and have more time than knowledge.
As for Mr. Akathisia, in discussing things off-line, we have agreed that sometimes what you type and what you mean can be two different things as well as what was typed and was read. I think we're cool now, but I'll speak for myself.
