Disgusted, Etc.

[Joe And Penny Goss]

Alan, There possibly is another factor that causes us much friction.
We have all grown up talking face to face reading each others body language
as we speak and talk.
Here on the list we can not see the personality of the writer and thus  the
intent or meaning of the post may be lost.
And good grief, all of us need to be taken with a grain of salt once in a
while , or as someone said take a time out our selves when we get too hot
under the collar.
