Good post, Ian. And don't worry about 'slipping' now and then. Everybody does. The important thing is to make sure that's not your ONLY mode of operation. I've noticed that DonM never lashes back when the Audya bashing starts, nor does Fran take the bait when the Mediastation Station bashing starts (now Roland, that's a different story ). But I disagree with you on one point, Ian; I think it does, to a large degree, have to do with MATURITY (of course, I'm no expert on that particular subject ).
