Everything is there at the top of the home page, if some of these people would just take the time to look at it first. There are 38K+ people that have signed the list, and who know how many others have been on this site. To expect the top 100 or so posters to correct every piece of mis-information posted by any user is hardly realistic. Nothing new would ever get discussed! And half the really wild posts are from trolls, that would simply start flame threads, when their positions are challanged.... john1701a #105:
