Steve, In my untrimmed post there was a direct quote
from you by Tyler but I never mentioned your name (or
anyone else' except for Tyler's) and did not address
you, other than as a member of this group. And yes, I
used the word "opponent" but the quotes were mine - it
was a carrying out of a metaphor not a statement of
fact - although your posts frequently leave me with a
bitter taste. They are frequently argumentative at the
least, and often outrightly attacking and sarcastic -
and - uh  well - unkind.  I happen to know that I am
not the only one who feels them as such. Take this
feedback however you will - but it is my hope you will
receive it in the spirit I offer it - constructive. I
know you have a lot to offer if only you could state
your opinions and share your experience in a way which
wasn't so insulting and unkind.

However, if I wish to support Tyler, Clayton J., Paul
R. ,and others who are truly helpful and kind to the
rest of us, that is my prerogative - and I intend to
continue to exercise it.  You may, of course, do
whatever you wish... The Talmud says "The highest form
of wisdom is kindness."  I believe that with all my
heart...Michael Vendrell
