"When did I ever do such a thing???", I would answer. Never. Not at least to me. Again I trusted the two people I addressed as being quite level headed, your postings bear that out as a fact, I simply perhaps over extended my cozzyness level.

No you didn't. Understand that like everyone else, we here have bad days, too. Especially when it ramps up outside.

Yesterday morning, I logged on and found flames coming at me from all directions, most of them sprinkled with unprovoked rudeness and obnoxiousness. There have been some abhorrent personalities infesting these threads lately. I was able to get one particularly reprehensible personal attack removed yesterday that even had veiled physical threats in it.

FR has been a slice of home for me and when you feel one of your support bases turning on you, it's rough. This behavior by some of these trolls has already driven a fellow "FR Iraq Chapter" member away from here and I may join him.

So, you just got caught in the crossfire (hey, it's happened to me a couple of times for real...LOL) and I was in a rotten mood.

You're one of the good guys and my sense of humor is restored. ;-)

"...my sense of humor is restored."
I'm glad to hear you are feeling a bit better. I sensed you where not blasting me directly. To many goons around this site any more. Sites such as this really suffer once they are advertised to much. To many people sign up with bad intentions. Sure makes the job harder for the Admins.
I guess all you can do, is realize your observations are important to a lot of people here. But surely if you find enough is enough, no one can blam you for dropping out of the loop. Your well being and performance on the job are all that should matter to you.
At any rate, hope a few minutes of your time each day can be spent on a quiet green lawn, with some flowering plants, and warm sun, some trees perhaps.
Again, prayerfully hoping you stay safe and sound in body and in spirit.
