Damn! I ALMOST made a clean getaway. I ALMOST managed to stay out of this little brouhaha over Danny boy. But alas, this post was just too much. I thought we had some decent discussions last week and I had hoped things might lighten up. But, this post CB is a bit much. You've been railing against third party, ad hominem attacks and then employ that very technique in your exhortation to Danny boy to take the high road. Whether you believe that calling Bill's post "disgusting" is factual or not, he will see it as an attack. I know I do. If it was important enough to comment on, why not post it directly to Bill? Now if we all want to get along as we discussed and cut down the polarization, then perhaps you would agree that this post by yourself is probably not going to do much in accomplishing that goal. And this is why it is silly to bemoan the loss of an "attitude" or a ""tone" on this thread which you can not be bothered to adhere to yourself. It makes no difference to me. I am willing to make an effort to reduce the polarization you identified. I am also quite willing to use the same techniques I see you employ which are quite polarizing if that's the way the thread goes too. Just my two cents for what they are worth. JLA
