Goodness no. If saying something is inherently offensive ... is inherently offensive, imagine the jam we'd be in. <g>

Heavens no, George. Not at all- I'm not even sure to what you were referring ...it was more an observation of the various "camps" (for lack of a better word) that seem to be established here and the almost immediate breakdown when certain parties enter the fray. Some manage to at least keep a discussion going, even if there is obvious disagreement, but others only seem to leap in to pour gas on small eruptions just for the fun of it. They seldom offer much in the way of substance, and I always feel as if they are waiting to pounce and encourage ugliness. As you know, I'm just really opposed to that type of "humor". I think it's stupid and petty, but mostly I hate it because it stifles real communication. It's a waste of time and it's irritating as hell!! I'm sorry you thought I was taking an indirect shot- I wouldn't do that to you! Plus I enjoy you and Lather- even if I often don't understand what you're talking about. Still you say it so well.
