I’m not about to insult your intelligence, mock your faith, call you names, or do anything else uncivil. I don’t mean to imply that you should leave this board. You have as much right to as me or anyone else. I would like to know, though, what your motives are for posting here. Can you explain that in a paragaph or two? Thanks. Oh, and in case anyone wishes to ask me the same question, I am here simply to amuse myself. I enjoy reading the posts of smart people, and I’ve found the SDMB a consistent resource for that. Ofthen the board’s a refuge from the unpleasant aspects of life. I have no other reason. ---

This thread was a bad idea on my part and I have requested that it be closed. ---
