<ot>Hi Carolyn - as you know, I ve tried to stay out of the dispute between the 2 camps. However, if race has nothing to do with it, then people should think twice before bringing it up. I mean, if one side thinks the other side is wrong, why not simply counter the accusations with facts as one knows it? Why bother to raise the race card at all? I ve kicked around long enough to see the insidiousness of this kind of tangental speculation. Planning the seed in the reader's mind that one's opponent belongs to the "them" group is very dangerous. It depersonalizes individuals. Even clueless individuals like myself <g> got a taste of it. When I asked 2 simple questions, for my benefits as well as the benefits of others who are interested in INSP as a stock, irrespective of personality involved, I was interrogated as if I had hidden agenda [I don't mean you, since you were kind enough to give me +ve feedback.] That was weird! Anyway, maybe I should keep my mouth shut, but I tend to have a righteous streak now and then myself [bad trait, I reckon <vbg>,] so I point that out. On 2nd thought, maybe the more I want to get people back in the right frame of mind, the worse it gets, so I shall shut out <g> best, Bosco
