Gary-

There is a BIG difference between genteel PC, basic civility, a slight 
"bit of heat," and just plain rudeness. I think we loose a few people 
everytime there is a lot of bickering and bantering back and forth. IMO 
it is a shame to see people openly attack other participants over 
OPINIONS - and it's getting worse. I feel that most people, especially 
new subscribers and those who are new to stereo, are looking for an 
information forum and encouragement in their new-found hobby, not a 
virtual boxing ring. I don't think it's a problem of ultra-sensitivity; 
it's just that most people just do not want to deal with the BS. We 
don't have to tip toe around conversations, but there is a polite way to 
discuss things, and even to disagree, especially in front of other 
people.

But, this is just my opinion. Have a nice day.  {:>)
