I knew that Chase, and a few others on this board, may have shared that sentiment, one which I didn't think needed to be relegated to a private email like it was some kind of off-color joke that needed to be told out behind the barn.

Exactly right Mike. It is News&Views. If we are regulated to express our opinion by e-mail only, there wouldn't be much use for News%Views would there? I also agree, had the shoe been on the other foot and the victory parade been in Richmond, there couldn't have been enough accolades and praises strewed around. To which I have no problem whatsoever. They have their views and we have ours. I don't think we can expect them to share our views nor they to share ours. Now I can't say fairer than that can I?
