>What I've been finding more and more disappointing is the name calling and personal attacks that've been going on in this forum for the past several weeks (it's been going on a lot longer, but seems to have reached a fever pitch of late). I expect this kind of behavior from TV shows like "Jerry Springer" (which is just one of the reason I avoid shows like that) but not in a forum where professionals hang out to share ideas. I consider that type of behavior unprofessional and a waste of bandwidth.<

Hi Doug,

I very much agree with you. I am very disappointed with many of the messages appearing on the Universal Thread recently. The issue is not free speech. The issue is professionalism. I hope the name calling and personal attacks stop very soon.
