Chris,
It's not my intention to cause bickering. I didn't even expect the message
to make it to the group.
However, I am not going to let someone bully me around & I thought the group
should know what he's doing to me, because it could happen to any of you as
well.
As I told Glenn, there is no need to moderate or censor me (yeah, I know I
spelled it wrong before. LOL) I will do that myself. But, if there are some
of you out there who as Glenn has stated are trying to bait me into
something, then you should be moderated or banned as well for trying to
start something.
Eric
