Another perspective

[Lance Lafargue]

I agree Bill.  I realize too, that those who pick fights usually really
enjoy them, and that's why they do it.  So almost any response perpetuates
it.  It's hard when it is intermingled in good tech talk. Hopefully most
good threads in the future won't be continually ruined.
