Hi Walter. Thank you kindly for pointing out my error. Maybe I was so busy keeping up with Mike's responses that I wasn't reading clearly.
No that is a copout - I just screwed up.

I have been on this thread from about maybe mid-February. Yes I saw most of went on but decided to stay out of the fray.

Unfortunately the human side of me took over when I continually watched people being trashed and kicked off SI for nothing much more than expressing a contrarion position. I do not blame SI, because I am sure that they had tremendous pressure from the vocal and arrogant type.

I have a serious problem with people that want to silence others but force their biased opinion on everyone. I think that everyone should be allowed to speak regardless of their opinion. I came on this site to try and get more info. It loses value when it is always onesided.

The appearance of posters with multiple names and "handles", obviously with an agenda, concerns me even more. I understand that with the many thousands involved, I am dreaming to think that any opinion expressed by myself will have an effect.

I do however intend to express my right to freedom of speech. I hope to do so politely as much as possible.

I must tell you Walter that it is sometimes very difficult. I get the impression that you are a reasonable and intelligent person. I doubt that you will disagree that most of these people would be very polite face to face. Put them in front of a computer, perhaps with a fictitious ID and they turn into animals. Anything goes! I just can't agree with that thinking.

Regards,
Dan
