Nobody questioned your experience or right to participate. In fact, the opposite is true: you continue to challenge the right of others to participate. As for pledging loyalty to Fox with every breath- where did that come from?
Sorry to have to post like this but I keep hearing suggestions that VFPers behave in a certain fashion, when in fact the problem tends to be NET converts provoking/inventing situations about which they can roll their eyes. Happy to agree to disagree rather than perpetuating this unfortunate element of the thread.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
