Dear Mike and list members,

Very well said Mike. I did get drawn into it this time out of pure
frustration and the same I AM TIRED OF ALL THE 'FERTILIZER' also. I should
have sent a post like yours. For my part in attempting to throw cold water
on it, I apologize to everyone.

Having been humbled,

Greg
