Now, you have to wear asbestos if you post to the list. For the life of me, I have never seen such hatred in some people. Not just this Club, but this society. Who would want to welcome that kind of grief! Are we on the same list Randy? I see people having fun on here together, joking etc frequently. Mind you, there are several that post that I just never read, so maybe I am missing something. Now if you were referring to this list a few years ago, I would say perhaps it was a bit more volatile. For the most part I think everyone does pretty good with how passionate and diverse we are about what we believe in. Minor disagreements are good for the spirit at times...they remind you that you are still alive.
