Laurie,

It's not unusual.  The modus operandi is to wrap up insulting and  
condescending in a thin veil of civility and then sit back and enjoy  
the havoc.  It's not unlike the kid who picks a fight on the  
playground and then runs away to watch the chaos created.

It really is insulting and condescending, and I, for one, am sick to  
death of it.

Sorry, Lawrence Brothers.  I know that this was probably an  
inappropriate post, and I regret it if I have crossed the line, but  
enough is enough.

Eric
