Bang, I am beginning to get the impression that if I said,"CHOCOLATE!", you would repeatedly shriek "VANILLA! VANILLA! VANILLA!" just for the hell of it.

I have tried as well as I could, approaching the issue from many different angles, and you have done your d@mndest to shoot me down. I've had enough.

As a member of this board for more than a decade, I think I have a pretty well-established record of being polite toward and supportive of the concerns of other posters.

Maybe that approach is no longer valued here. In any event, I'm done with this topic.

Mods, please feel free to close this thread. I have HAD IT with the personal, ongoing antagonism.

Then why start another one?

To make the point. I have never, in all these years, experienced the kind of relentless antagonism that I felt from this one.

Most of us try to be supportive of each other, though not afraid to bring differing viewpoints to the table. Things don't feel the same, any more.
