Hi again, Mike,
Well, seeing as how I have re-read this entire thread and a few other like it, in case I missed something - I still don't see the "mess" you are referencing? What I see, on the other hand - are numbers of questions posed by Jan Still and others, while various members of this Forum are offering their input, stating policy as put forth in the "Forum Decorum", and offering their opinions and impressions. And with exception of one individual - I would say much, if not all, of that discourse is a healthy process - as it reminds me somewhat of a political debate where people within that party are trying to develop their parties "platform". Certainly, I don't view "debate" as a mess just as surly as I don't view the democratic system a mess. You are certainly entitled to believe either, however.

That is your feeling - and again, certainly you are entitled to feeling anything you would like. However, your feeling does not necessitate or require me - or Ralph - to offer you any explanation at all about "your" feelings, which appear to be simply predicated on a contact point on a webpage I programmed for Ralph. In fact, if either this Forum or my name on a webpage causes you to feel the slightest discomfort, you are also certainly able to exercise your right not to visit either that page nor this Forum, but just as certainly - you are more then welcomed to post here at any time.
I guess then since I don't see either the mess, nor share your feelings, nor agree that I owe you an explanation, yours is a rather difficult question to answer - if indeed, there was a question altogether?
Best Regards,
John
