Bill.

Rob replied as a true gentleman to an issue that certainly needs to be
addressed in a forceful but somewhat light manner. It was appreciated.
This forum should be as civil a discourse as we can make it. Perhaps it
is felt that "a forceful voice" is all that many of us who are in the
trenches and not in the temples have as a recourse.
Hope the message was taken in the spirit in which it was given.
And thank you for not replying while you still had a good fire under the
boiler.
Someone could have been burned.
