(And yes I could have made his private but it's > a public issue) Rob, if someone posts to the list on me, I will post on the list to them. You are a prime example of keeping a silly thread going. If someone doesn't like what I've wrote, then, according to you, they should email me personally. Then I will reply to them personally.

If you vehemently disagree with > someone then take it off list. Hey, like I said, on list goes on list, off list goes off list. Don't preach to me, it's not a problem with just me. And if someone on list decides to degrade and insult someone that deserves respect, I'll voice my objection on list. It's all rather simple. What is so interesting is that this is turning to me. Good, I don't mind, and it spares Shawn. I wonder why no one spoke up on that with Ken Archer who made some rather juvenile and insult comments to Shawn. I would bet money if I did that to someone, just change the name to Brad, and the gang-bang begins. Oh how about Paul Stenquist's remarks: >I've enough education that I'm not impressed by a PhD. I don't know why you >would sign your name with So-and-So, PhD. unless you were looking for work or >self impressed with your achievements. We don't have ranks in the pdml >(except for Doug Brewer who is the General! <g>) Once again, degrading. I also like how this member, like others, then suck up to Doug as if that solidifies their point. Doug should not be brought into this, unless he wants to post. It's very close to saying 'I can insult and Doug supports me'. I don't think Doug would think highly of that. Brad
