These threads have become the new Sungirl vs. the cat haters, Inspector Harry Callahan vs. sinkspur, and A+Bert vs. everybody form of entertaiment that I miss about FR. Thanks!

Hey, you forgot "dead vs...." oh, never mind. Really dating yourself there, Gunny. Those were some classic brouhahas, though, weren't they?

I think when it's all said and done, and all the cards are on the table, it will have been the neurotic, vainglorious, love-to-hear-themselves gasbags (not entirely unlike myself, as it were) who will have left the most indelible marks upon me resulting from my travels here in FR. Started back in '97-'98, right when JimRob first opened the doors. I was "jimgib" back then.

Thoughtful discourse and effective advocacy are all well and good, and certainly have their place, but nothing gets the blood going like a good flame war, especially with a knuckle-dragging toolbag!

Thanks for the memories, Gunny.

;^)
