Couple of thoughts.
Marshall. Wasn't this discussed on a number of threads on both Friday and Saturday?
People need to chill. Maybe because I'm getting older, but I can count the number of people who's opinion of me I care about on two hands. None of them use this message board. Of course it's nice to be liked, but frankly, if someone on this board thinks I'm a dickhead, then frankly, I don't give a shit. I think it would be helpful if more people took that approach and just let things go.
If a number of different people think someone is a dickhead, then guess what. Chances are, that someone is a dickhead.
We will always have differences of opinion here, and that's fine, what's not fine IMHO, is when people attack the poster not the post. Someone like TOBW could say something, and people would nod sagely and think "yes he's got a point there", yet if croesy, for example, said the same thing it would kick off. That's not to say of course, that he doesn't invite some of the responses by the way he engages with others, but I'm wasting my breath there. Same applies to others of course.
