Please don't post anything that could lead others to feel put down.
But please don't take this personally, either, this doesn't mean I don't like you or think you're a bad person, and I'm sorry if this hurts you.
More information about posting policies and tips on alternative ways to express yourself, including a link to a nice post by Dinah on I-statements, are in the FAQ:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#enforcePhillipa, I'm also sorry if you felt hurt.
Follow-ups regarding these issues, as well as replies to the above post, should of course themselves be civil.

The go-round is open 24/7. We can watch it again as soon as someone else chooses to get on instead of handling a situation differently.
