I'm with Mr. Walley on this one. Some of you guys have been very quick to make ignorant judgments. It would be disgusting if Jim were to ban him from this list as a result of the iForum thread exchanges. Let it go guys, and maybe even offer Philip an apology. My .02.

LOL. wow, different worlds. For someone to make a ordeal out of a statement about walking is more disgusting then me taking up for myself. This neil fellow attacked my point of view and I had enough of it. Have you ever seen me say anything close to this to anyone at anytime? no. to suggest that I be removed because of this is ludicrous.
