> I believe you stood up for others Beardy, because I have been admiring your direct, sensible kindness here on the board. I wish I had the knack. I just get myself in trouble. :)

I am trying hard to remain civil. I keep checking and rechecking, but I am having trouble with my posts to one person on the board. I don't want to be blocked, and I don't think I've done anything worth being blocked for, but we have to be able to ask questions and disagree, don't we? Am I doing okay?

As far as I can see beardy. :) I think Dr. Bob is the person to ask. (Unless of course I'm that person - boy, am I paranoid today! I'm going to get myself pinched.) I think asking questions and disagreeing is fine. And I think asking questions and disagreeing with respect and civility is wonderful. That's why I like Dr. Bob's board, and keep coming back even after I ban myself.
