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.
