When I was on the job I learned to call a spade a spade, and many times it even saved my life. Notwithstanding your extensive explanation, I can't pretend to endorse the approach here. Even so, some very kind and compassionate souls managed to come to the surface, for which I am grateful. I still stand by my observations as being real and valid to me, and I don't hold any grudges. Neither would I ever want to conduct any of the very successful group buys I've done on some other truly excellent forums on the web. Sorry, I guess I can only give you the unvarnished truth, just like all the rest of your posters who don't work at being "warm and fuzzy". Difference is, all I've changed is my expectations on this forum, not my basic personality or attitude which is always oriented toward helping others who deserve my help. I have always contended that (just like guys like Toby, here) human beings are at their best when they are doing something nice for someone else. More here should try it. I think you will find that you like the feeling. No harm, no foul.
Peace.
Dave R.
