Here you say that you refuse the title of "leader," and that you shouldn't be to held any standards that a "leader" would. You have stated in earlier posts and have demonstrated in this exchange that you think its OK to throw civility out the window in this forum. Admittedly, this particular exchange is mild in comparison to some of the earlier ones, but it still shows you want Brin-L to conform to your concept. How is that not trying to be a leader? -- Matt
