If you don't know what I am talking about, check out all of the interchanges between you and Bob. You and Bob personify what I am bitching about.
Um, Dusty, given the original purpose of this section;
"This is a forum for general discussion not related to woodworking." (Quotation marks and period added by me, rest copied from the front page.)
What should we be doing here? Sharing recipes?
"General discussion not related to woodworking," to me, means a chat room.
Or, am I seeing it wrong?
Frankly, I've learned more from JPG and Bob's banter, than your "bitching."
Don't misunderstand me. I TRULY respect ALL the knowledge you've shared here, and consider you a friend. But, the Community section IS a chat room!

[quote="JPG40504"]So what next?
Crabby, fed up, venting, now bitchy.
All are an emotional state of mind.]
Leave it to an engineer to attempt to make everything logical. You are correct in that all are an emotional state. Quite often the mind has no involvement in emotional states. In fact, with most negative emotional states, including crabby, fed up, venting and bitchy, those emotions are only exacerbated by introducing the mind (reason, logic, etc.) into the equation.

OK, change 'state of mind' to 'attitude'. Regardless 'all' is controlled by the mind(at least that which it can).
