JimBinMI, I think you may be experiencing the crossing of the line between jest and joust. All of us "regulars" have posted remarks that were either taken the wrong way or were perhaps "over the line" when we were in the thick of a battle of wit or words. I know I'm prone to it. (I did it to PaulB one time that I remember and felt like a personal apology was in order, but he responded with the resilience and good humor we've come to admire him for.)
It's also very difficult to know the exact inflection of someone's post in writing, even with all the "faces".
But don't resort to spending less time here - just spend less time reading one person's posts, if you feel they're "over the line".
BTW, Wen was saying that my 2,000 lb. Bradco 609 backhoe wouldn't fit a 19.5 hp backhoe, not any backhoe. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
