Out of over 1200 subscribers, I bet there are more than 50 LOL. It seems to me that it's the same people who stir posts and poke at the fire. Maybe we, the other 1150 should all start posting positive stuff. (Okay, I do a lot of negative stuff, but not at each other!!!, just at those darn ARs) Sometimes posting about negative issues is important but to dwell on them or posting JUST to see what can be riled up, not so important. If we just concentrate on the negative, it wins. If we look at (for) the positive, it shines.
