Darned fine opus, hutch. I agree with you on just about every point made. I'm sorry to see you go and hope you come back once the out-of-control whackos depart. And they surely will, because their unreasonable form of 'debate' is not productive and eventually fizzles and melts just like the Wicked Witch of The West. :o)
With all due respect, you just congratulated a cry-baby who couldn't take the heat.
