We both agree about Katies posts.

I do not think negative posts and bickering are necessarly bad for the board. Some are downright entertaining.
Jimbo and I have had a few knock down and dragouts here. RE: Boreland counterfits for one. We remained friends while agressively disagreeing. We then teamed up and took on the A**holes on rec.gambling.poker. This one made the $6 chip spat look like a high school public speaking debate.
I do draw the line when it comes to name calling and bigotery. They have no place on "Our" board. I say disagree all you want, it is part of life.
