John,

Some people are just too thin-skinned. If I don't like comments directed at me, after awhile I'll just ignore the person and/or that thread. Flame wars are a waste of my time. There's no sense getting all p*ssed off and indignant about whatever nasty thing someone chooses to say. People who know you will know it's unfounded, so who cares? Besides, replying to the poster just increases the amount of stuff they post back. If you quit replying, they'll quit posting. I must've missed JVP's posts concerning the sexual preferences of others ... I don't have time to read every darn thread that's posted here.

My point still is this ... legal action was a ridiculous response to the problem.
