   I disagree, and it was not his opinion that was the issue, it was
the delivery. Take note that James took the time to make a lengthy
entry to say, "Hey, I am not pleased..." Many members have expressed
your opinion throughout the groups, and have been able to do so
without that certain quality. Obviously, his style does not give you
affront, but it gave James and other 'over-reacting members' affront.
And I don't see George getting strung up, just nudged, as is
appropiate.  
   And I suspect yours will be the lone entry that defends calling
other member's entries garbage. 
   See that, I did not string you up...  I have a nickname for you,
Craig 'The Slayer' Graham. It has a certain ring to it, don't you
think?
