This is not pointed toward anyone on this list, but I try to remember a Bible proverb when some one starts getting under my skin... Proverbs: "Only a fool argues with a fool"! 

I don't write much to this list but I thought I would express to everyone that it is nice to see how the majority of folks are tolerant of each others differing viewpoints :)

Sometimes it's difficult to avoid flaming people that continuously irritate
people on this list, but I'll try to avoid it. I've cancelled quite a few
messages I've written to this list.

It's too often very hard to convince people that their "new" ideas are
unfeasible or impossible. You think you've given them a thorough technical
explanation, but they don't bother to read it, or at least not understand it.
