There seems to be lots of finger pointing, name calling, and in general - a total break down of common decency to our fellow user. Now I do understand that we'll get a troublesome user from time to time, but must we really sink to the depths of that user to prove a point? If we're to prove a point to those that name call, are rude, troll, and all the other recent events, we must do so on our level. Allow them to spew what ever it is they spew, and we must simply either ignore it (the correct way imho) Kill em with kindness, OR, reply in such a fashion that the user has no idea what we're saying. Let's stop the erosion of this list now before it goes too far. Over and out... -- Best regards, Chris Opportunity always knocks at the least opportune moment.
