If it is not clearly evident to you, it should be, that any sarcasm, demeaning or caustic remarks "spin" into a useless "spitting match", hurt feelings and a filling of the board with non-topic-related postings in defense of our respective egos.

I have just deleted a "thread" which involved a questioning of one poster's honesty, a response questioning another's motives and qualifications and so on.

Please just post "facts". Do not comment on another poster's motives or qualifications or make any personal remarks of any kind.

I am currently "filtering" a couple of posters and I simply don't have time to constantly be reading and approving your messages. If you cannot control yourself, I will, but you will see a slowing down of the appearance of your posts and you will not be in "real time" with the others communicating on this site.

Please moderate your remarks and consider the feelings and reputation of others, before you post. Let's make this the friendly and historically important site, it should be.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Jim
