I suppose I should leave this for the moderator to address, but being a past moderator, I guess I cannot help but comment. :-)
David, et al,
As moderator, I saw nothing 'ad hominem" about Judy's statement. Given that we sometimes do have idols, and those who have idols are often very sensitive about them, it could be that Judy is performing an act of love by encouraging Terry to examine this. (And, she has done it much more gently than many of us would have!) She may be right, she may be wrong, Terry will have to honestly determine that. I feel he is a very humble man and may examine himself because of her statements.
If, on the other hand, Judy made this statement to Terry because of her own pride, then the reverse would be true. Then she would have to examine herself to see what might have frustrated her in Terry's comments. That is for her to decide.
