James here....

Well said and good point. I feel that I have the right and RESPONSIBILITY to avoid things if they push my buttons. In this conxext, people can only make me mad if I let them; if I get baited into something it is my fault for allowing this to happen. This may be a little strict but I am making a point. Ignore those who sing the same sad song, everytime.

In a normal day I receive ~ 1 meg of e-mail. I long ago learned to set up kill files to delete mail from people I don't want to hear from. I use an extensive filter system so 1 meg is distilled into useful info. Why let a few apples spoil an otherwise excellent list serv ?
