Judy, you are one of the very few people here on FFL who think that Curtis 
"fights" unfairly.  I mean look around........  I am sure you are convinced of 
this, but others are not.

I know you pride yourself on your being unbiased.  But I also think that your 
focus on detail means that you sometimes miss the "gist" or bigger picture.  
And that results in your feeling outraged that others don't see things your 
way. They see the big picture that you can overlook, you see the errors in 
details that they overlook. I think it helps to remember that there is not much 
in life that is black and white, right and wrong, good and evil. There is lots 
of gray.  Maybe your role is to see things in black and white and to be sure 
details are correct, but it is a tough road to run along.
