thank you, GZ... many years ago, on a different newsgroup, someone pointed out how absurd and ridiculous and pointless it was for people to really care about what is said on a Usenet NG, and when you think about it, that really makes a great deal of sense... It really makes no sense whatsoever for people to care about what goes on here, yet many of us(yes, including myself!) often ignore or forget that simple truth... I suppose it's just one of the many negative, unpleasant aspects of human nature that many people are so sensitive and touchy and seem compelled to argue and fight and lose context and perspective and blow things WAY out of proportion!
