Hi Paul

I went through the same period as you. My perspective is a little different from the others however.

As I grow older, I choose to stay away from venom, unrelenting conflict, drama, and intolerance. I just can't stand it anymore. I'm not talking about common disagreements, but pure disregard for civility and gentlemen-ship. I just can't stand it and that's why I stay away from this board as it has become very commonplace here.

Some of the most lovely people that used to frequent this board no longer come around any longer. So I guess it's not just me.

Good to hear from you and stick around, this board needs nice folks like you.

Al

Thank You Al. I really appreciate it! I think I will stick around this time. This has been my best thread ever on this board.

Al, all the good guys hang out at the Bar.
