It does, altho I disagree on the "negative" label, as I usually do, having seen that used over and over pretty much to silence the opposition. And I'd say there's a fairly obvious ironic cast to much of what goes on here~~from Barry as well as most of the rest of us~~and also a desire on Barry's part to yank a few chains and see what comes out of the woodwork. :) Which he's quite up front about. If so, I'd say he's getting some pretty good answers every day. And, I gotta admit, I find it mucho entertaining myself to see many of the the silly, overblown reactions as well as a fairly obvious level of meanness (not necessarily from you, lurk~~in fact, your responses have been somewhat mild by comparison) to what are simply his opinions. Hot-Air City. Insecurity City. My Opinion Is All That Matters City. Whatever happened to the "sweet truth," guys? :) Seems to have taken a big hit somewhere along the way. Sal
