Hey Keith, it has been a while since I have complimented you on you tenacity and the the depth of your knowledge(files) and of course your ability to tear apart some with certainly a misguided thought. And to top that I am very glad that I have never had the temerity to interject a foolish

I am not one to complain as a rule but really Keith can't we call a halt to all the you said, I said nonsense? I truly enjoy a good debate on a relevant subject when the debators seem to have an adequate grasp of the information needed to continue, but at the moment the entire site seems
