This has turned out to be the most disturbing thread I have seen on this forum. People are saying things that I thought was totally out of character for them. We are so lucky that the owner of this forum has not or ever imposed rules and regulations of behavior here. Some woodworking forums would have kicked us all off in a heartbeat. Although Dusty recently never pays any attention to his signature motto, everyone needs to read it and go by it. You know, that little thingy that says If ones words are not better than silence..............

Unfortunately by remaining silent, one must be prepared to suffer fools.:eek:

I give up on this one!;)

Nearly a year has passed since this discussion, and I have not been on the forum since November 2012; and today I receive an email that you have "replied" to this post. "None so blind as those who will not look." Golly!! I sure wish that you would look! I don't want you to be blind!
