Look(in) - I'm not really sure what your point is to all of this. I
suppose if I took the time to read through all your posts, I might
understand it, but I really don't want to spend that kind of time.
It seems to me that most of us are really here (in the Fort) for the
same thing. I think it would be best to (and I hate this overused
phrase) agree to disagree and simply move on to the real reason we're
here. This disruptive behavior is counterproductive and distracts the
posters to the point where they don't want to post.
I also must say that I had nearly forgotten about the roll calls of
the early days. Gosh, those were the days...
