Hi Capt. Russ, I too respect both Don and Chas and also don't think either had any ill intentions whatsover. And that goes for my reply on that thread as well. In hindsight, I feel that the thread discussion was actually positively productive, as it brought to light different perspectives based on our varied personal backgrounds and experiences, and also gave us all the opportunity to perhaps better understand how it feels to walk in another man's shoes, and that's a good thing in helping us better understand each other and bring us all closer together. Happy Valentines Day weekend to everyone, and don't forget to do something special for your sweetheart on Monday Feb. 14th.

PS: I also hope Taike sticks around because though I may not always agree with his viewpoints, I certainly enjoy reading his unique Asia influenced perspective.
