Far be it for me to criticize, but hasn’t the judgment in the past be you must obey the rules of the forum you’re in, and not anticipate a forum change?

Correct, **Irishman** , but we’re not talking about serious violation of the rules of the CoCC forum, we’re talking about walking along a grey boundary line…

I’m right here. Sorry for the delay, I’ve had a busy life lately. I hope to be paying more attention to my forum in the future. I was amiss in my duties.

To those of you who e-mailed me in the past few weeks and didn’t get an answer, I apologize. I will be going through my e-mail folder in the next week.

Thanks to all who took the time to report posts to moderator from Comments on Cecil’s Columns.

Hope it was good-busy Arnold.

Some posts as a poster would be more than welcome too.
