As a long-time member, I'd like to respectfully ask that we not get 
into labeling and name-calling other posters.  There's always bound 
to be a variety of opinions on all the HPfGU lists, and that's what 
makes the discussions interesting.  If people begin to be fearful 
that they will be personally attacked for expressing an opinion it 
tends to have a rather chilling effect on the conversation and 
well... it just kind of sucks the fun out of things, IMO.
