Hi Paul..all good, my friend..but to clarify a few things:
1. No where in my post did I say that I'm not as guilty as some others re: veering a thread off track, or stating things that some might deem as controversial. Unlike Henry, I certainly don't do it simply to stir the pot... I am well aware of the posts I've written, as well as why I have written them.
2. I will leave any history that you and Alosso have between you two...I like and respect both of you, and neither of you need my help in defending yourselves.
3. I never stated, nor implied, that your responses were not clear and calmly posed. I try to do the same when I am challenged, but often that approach just angers a few people who had nothing to do with the thread previous to that...(read my back and forth with SteveW in the lets be honest thread...it's a good example)
4. You are absolutely entitled to your opinion, just like everyone else. There is also nothing wrong, or sinister about reading and posting in this forum...that's what it was designed for, no? (I don't understand why a term like troll is even used)
5. Whether I agree with everything that is written is not the point. I usually learn something, and always enjoy reading the posts and contributing to any subsequent debate.
cheers,
ct
