Myirwin, I agree. We should take the high road. I guess what got me so mad was the way things were said. If you don't agree, either ignore or state your case in a civil manor. I have nothing against jfiber. He may have a point about the site that I do not

We all have enough stress in our regular lives, we do not need it here...
