Mel may not be a member, but he will always be chipper. And if a non-member has a contribution to this hobby, I am one person who is willing to listen.

Thankfully, I have a choice. I don't watch every program on TV - and I don't read everything I see (including threads on this Board...) If someone doesn't like an opinion or it's author, I suggest they move on to something they find more suitable.
