You don't have to worry Toolish, this thread has never been on topic since the second response.

I don't disagree, Jim. But sometimes threads take on a life of their own. This was one of those times.

In hindsight, the appropriate administrative response would have been to delete 12 Piece's post (#2). We've taken such action many times and hence enjoy a well-deserved reputation for post deletion and editing.

In this instance, rather than censure, I chose to let the post stand, but to clarify its intent (Post #4). Then, spurred by glcoach's lament that "neither side appreciates the other" (#6), off we went.



That kind of thing seems to work well on some sites where people are bashed, professionals are 'graded' and sound (but misrepresented) ideas "die horrible deaths" in closed chambers. All in the name of "fair game reporting." But, as you point out, it doesn't work too well around here.

Thank you for noticing.

Another lesson learned.
