Charles, your response was not at all the kind of response that I expected. Even though I felt my note to you was somewhat correct, it was certainly provoking. In fact, most would've come back with a defensive counter attack. You didn't.

Instead, you took the high road and admitted to having a knee jerk reaction. Man, have I had a lot of those. I've got notes all over SI that I wish I could take back! <g>

Thanks for your response, Bob

Charles, they got your "Irish" up, before you could check back and see that they didn't realize what the situation is.

I'm sure it would have gotten my "Irish" up too. But you beat me to the punch this morning.

I think that most of the people who use these forums, have respect for each other, whether they agree with somebody or not. But there's usually one bad apple in every crowd. and I'm not saying that it's anyone who posted here today.

I tend to look at these forums as clubs that we choose to participate in, rather than impersonal sounding boards. So the more we communicate with each other, the more we really do get to know people here. Although some people only want to state their opinion, and don't seem to care that they are dealing with human beings.

Just sharing my perspective. C Kahn
