Well said, Bill....
A similar experience on another list has me wondering ...
It would seem that when my mindset meshes with the opinion of another,
all is well but as soon as it differs, all of a sudden Im an idiot....
to be honest I wasn't expecting petulence.... childishness, yes, petulence
no....
Love the SOC list.... I may not respond, but I read every word... I might
learn something...
