Michael, Michael, Michael-- To back up Roland's comment, my whole purpose in life is pot stirring and I like to do it with grenades. Don't you worry that you stirred too much with that teaspoon you used. As Chris said, welcome and never take offense. The objective is discussion and understanding, but it's hardly a an etiquette club. Wear your armor, throw the gauntlet and we'll meet in the lists for some friendly jousting. It may seem like blood sport at times but remember that it is sport.
