So I'll add my 2 cents,

It's pretty easy to misinterpret the undertones in black and white text
(or whatever gee whiz colors you chose to use). I frequently find myself
cynical, too, but it works for me to just let it go by. More often than
not I later find that my first impression was wrong - yet again! When I
recall how many times that has happened it's easy to just keep quiet and
let it 'end here'. Some people on here are so very touchy that we can't
say anything without setting them off. A short blast of flames from them
(duck) and then everything settles down...unless we respond (see
'duck'). Those people will be okay when they get their meds adjusted
<wink>.

If somebody *asks* for advice and has made statements I know to be in
error, a private email seems to save face for them AND point out where
they can get back on track. Only rarely have I ever received flames for
that. By then, the flames are in private AND I know that karma will
happen when they abuse ohms law (or wherever their misinformation takes
them) so it is just that much easier. Live and let live:)

Happy Holidays to Everybody,
