In most cases yes.....maybe, but in this case Erik noted a S/N ratio that he
disliked , not a person. And I think that is a respectable attitude.

If Erik revealed that he had *PLONKED* me for those reasons I would have to
find that agreeable. I know *my* interests are not for everyone, yet I also
do not get a sense that anyone here dislikes me personally, and being
treated respectfully under those conditions makes all the difference.

But..........we have been down that road on this list, haven't we?
