>>I, for one, appreciate the way Michel and his team manage this site. I've been coming here for eight years, and thanks to my peers, have always been able to find answers to my technical questions.

>>Lists such as this one can and have been destroyed by egotistical know-it-alls that just don't know when to shutup. One list I've been a member of, also for eight years, came close to destruction for the same reason. A number of Doctors were volunteering their time answering questions. A few people were continually attacking the Doctors and their opinions. The Doctors split from that list and set up their own "moderated" list. Still free and easily accessible.

>>Why did I throw the second item in?? Because, whatever your age, subtract 10 and that will tell you the odds you already have it.
>>
>>I thought I was too young at the age of 55, 10 years ago........guess what?? I'm a 10 year survivor that has good people on a well managed list to thank for educating me.

>>Just trying to put things in the proper perspective.

>>>For instance....does a statement like "Bring it on gramps" constitute a personal attack ?
