We're in a "beat up on other poster" phase right now (I call it dart throwing), rather than a considered discussion one. It happens when some posters appear who are not interested in conversation but in being provocative. But when we are in such phases more than one of us gets pissed enough to say the sort of thing Ed did. I've done it; as have several others. However, we all understand it's one of Dale's roles. If we really want to start that sort of thing, we can always start our own threads. If I were you, I would relax until the dart throwing season passes.
