Yes/No ....... NO!!!!

Doc, I personally don't think you wrote anything harsh or ungentlemanly... just fervent, interesting and, as always, intelligent. I often come to this forum to search for a specific issue, and end up reading and learning about some completely unrelated topic just because I see you've posted in the thread. Your 'rants' provide valuable context to the larger implications of someone's narrowly focused question. Thank you for helping make this forum the boon that it is for many of us. Keep up the good work.

Sean
P.S. Thank you for serving, Sir.

Sean, you are most kind. My viewpoint here is that I should never try to mislead folks, but if my experience doesn't match that of others, it is very possible that I will do so. Your comments let me know that I have contributed positively at least some of the time.

I am leaving my rant in the thread even though I could have deleted it. It's a matter of personal integrity that I leave behind what I said. I won't hide form it. But I know there are times when I can go a little off the deep end. I won't say I'm always right and I know for a fact I can be opinionated. Those with passion for anything pay that price.

Having said that, I won't draw back my comments. But I will say that sometimes my passion overrides my ability to speak plainly. For better or worse, it is what I am. If Allen happens to follow this thread, I welcome his comments.
