John:

I hope you're not serious, are you?

The last thing I want to do is to offend or annoy anyone -- if I have done 
something wrong, please accept my most sincere apology.

When I said to bait, I meant to make the topic of interest -- much like a 
headline.

Are far as being "beat-up", no one in this group has done anything that I found 
remotely offensive or objectionable. I said that to be humorous. Sorry, 
sometimes humor doesn't translate well without visual clues.

In any event, if anyone has found my comments or observations objectionable or 
annoying, please accept my apology.
