====================================================================== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. ======================================================================
Is it possible that the list and it's readers have again fallen into a trap? We have one venomous bastard trolling for contentious argument - always phrasing his replies as nastily as he can expecting that the responses will be as nasty, if not more so, so that he will have the fun of escalating. And in the long run, how many well-meaning contributors will decide, for good reason, to drop out and leave us without their insights to other struggles? Please, Moderators - a time out for Schanoes. A year sounds good. - Bill S.
