Sorry Mems. This must have been posted while I was working on my previous response. Sadly, I have to admit it wouldn't have made any difference.

I'm sick and tired of members making veiled insults and then - when they get called on it - reacting with mock wide-eyed innocence and saying "Golly, gosh, gee...I didn't do anything wrong". I'm also absolutely sick and tired at the complete lack of respect shown by BOTH sides in this forum for anybody that has a different opinion or view. There WAS a time when people at IW could actually discuss opposing viewpoints without slinging mud in each other's faces, but that respect for the other person disappeared a loooooong freakin' time ago. And I fully admit that I'm as guilty as the next person. That's one reason why I left C.E. for awhile. And this current exchange has just proven what a mistake it was for me to come back.

I had hoped the members here had finally reached a point where they could actually discuss ideas respectfully with one another - but I see it is still the S.O.S. Nothing but a bunch of mud-slinging by both sides.

Feel free to take whatever action is necessary for my posts and this RANT. I'm done with C.E. anyway. I won't be coming back until I start seeing some respect displayed by the members here. From the looks of things, that's a long way off.
