Troy, I've actually been in the business since 1994. Regardless of the length of time I've been around, the posts to the list are not appropriate. I rely on this list and others for important information. Perhaps flames and other types of posts are appropriate in other lists, but not here. If this activity is allowed to continue you will find people unsubscribing and the credibility of the list reduced. Troy Settle wrote: > George, > > You've not been around very long I take it.
