John,

I have corresponded by e-mail with Leonidas. He is new to the hobby, and to The Chipboard. I can appreciate that the "go for the throat" appearance of some posts would tend to give him those impressions.

I hope that he stays around long enough to see that, after all the thrashing around, we tend to listen to each other and refine our ways of doing things. In short, the dialogue, however emotional, is a healthy thing.
