I have explained this to marteen and others before. We all have our differences and we all have our opinions. Generally speaking, private messages hide personal agendas and are generally disruptive to a living, breathing and healthy message board. There are occasions when private messaging is appropriate. I don't think that whether or not marteen and I or anyone else disagree or recognize each other are any of them.

I am sorry that some of you disagree. I can deal with that. I refuse to let your problems become my own.

I am certainly willing to man up on my own decisions and opinions. Are you?
