>Ok that is the 3rd time you've completely removed the key elements of my statements, questions and comments - thus avoiding talking about them at all. If you're heart is no longer in this discussion then perhaps it's time we end it? I think I've responded to all of your rebuttals and answered your questions. If you don't want to do the same then...you see...it's no longer two people communicating properly. Of course as a result I will claim victory since are you no longer participating by avoiding to respond.

FWIW I think you're wasting your time. Your posts to Rick have been admirable, but there is no sign he is listening to anyone but himself. He isn't engaging in a dialogue, he's getting up on a stump and beating his chest.
