Frankly, I was flabbergasted by longnshort's unacceptable response to it.

And you got a "Rec" from me for doing it.

That said, I hope longnshort comes back and makes ammends.

and certainly not worthy of the explosion it caused.

well the rudeness was certainly uncalled for, but i certainly understand the guffaws from those of us who are actually involved in small businesses and have suffered or witnessed the suffering far more dramatically than the large corporations...

and as bill rightly pointed out, there is nothing available to small business that isn't available to large businesses, iow, they are at a competitive DISadvantage..yes they can 'cheat' by padding 'expenses' which is like picking up nickels in front of a steam roller...meanwhile they are being raped and pillaged by banksters, politicians, and monetary policy, something over which they have NO control

Frankly, I was flabbergasted by longnshort's unacceptable response to it. I could not overlook it, especially when he repeated it. He was a long time poster here, and knew better.

Did he get a courtesy PM warning first? Inquiring minds...

Bill, I appreciate it but it bothers me that he was a long time poster. Maybe he was just having a bad day. What I mean is that if you want to bring him back, don't worry about me. I can deal with him and ignore is always an option.
