Yes, I am aware of your habit of making exceptions for yourself. ;)

Kris,
I guess it's time I published another 'Bill! Caveat'.
EVERYTHING I post is just my opinion. I'd think all of you would know
that, but every so often I have to remind people of that. I'm not
claiming to be 'right' or 'wrong', it's just my opinion.
Yes, it is my opinion based on my experience and translated into a
logically-constructed text-based communication. Yes, I do state my
opinions very confidently and openly. No, I don't throw in 'IMO' or
'but I could be wrong' or 'I hope this doesn't upset you' on every post.
So again, EVERYTHING I POST IS MY OPINION. You're absolutely entitled
to have yours and it can certainly be different than mine. In fact if
it wasn't, and everyone on this forum thought exactly alike I wouldn't
care to participate in it.
Of course that's just my opinion also and maybe you'd like to
participate in a forum that everyone agreed with everyone else.
...Bill!
