In other words, you have nothing to add other than a scold about what you perceive as tone?

There's an old German saying: "Der Ton macht die Musik." I.e., an uncivil tone will frequently mask a legitimate point. So, I feel that you are doing yourself no favor by rudely attacking another apparently well-meaning poster (entrophy12) who simply wanted to make a casual observation, and not engage in a "tooth-and-nail" fight.

And, yes: I don't think that anything that I have to say on this time-worn issue would prove especially edifying or entertaining to most other FReepers - with whom I am probably in accord, anyway.

Discretion is sometimes the better part of valor.

Regards,

What a silly person you are, you should try to focus on the topics rather than play the schoolyard girl.
