PJ, we'll have fun together and make lots of sparks.
yeah, I have heard comments that outside of Unfriendly Politics, the most passionate TBN members are in the welding forum. Then I suppose it's whose truck is better in Transportation.
What I worry about is folks jumping out of Unfriendly Politics, with their hair on fire, and then try to discuss the pros and cons of welding rods. Everyone has to be careful about this and as a non contentious person I'm grateful that hasn't happened here. I'm all about having fun and learning new things. And you really do learn a lot here.
Bottom line is I don't think any of us are that skilled or that smart that we can't hear someone else out politely. Now if they are saying something utterly or dangerously wrong, well speak up.
But to call someone a fool or whatever, worse, a liberal.....

well it really needs to stay in that forum and not leak out. A puddle does not care what the politics are of the guy on the other end of the stick.
