IMHO....talk forums mostly provide an opportunity for entertainment, venting, and exchange of information.
Even this one is a valid thread because it was made by a longtime member with a beef to air.
I think he has a good point, although it doesn't bother me personally, because I have (as the expression goes) bigger fish to fry.
The older and more cynical I get - the more I try not to take anything too seriously.
Love you all.....enjoy!
