What say you guys ! Enuf is enuf !>>>> Marvin, I concur whole heartedly! It does seem, and we somehow do this in-house beat=up every once in awhile, most famlies do. But gee whiz folks we seem to be sniping a bit too much at each other this past week or so. Can we please all take a deep breath? Relax and forget the inadvertant words that came across in not quite what they meant or another has read then responded in a "get even" manner due to misreading. Only worsening the situation. This E-communication system is unique and wonderful, however it is not as wonderful as "live conversation"! Where something is said, possibly taken the wrong way and in a moment can be corrected by live words. You see there isn't a father or mother in here who can say, "Damn! if you kids don't knock it off , your into the wood shed for a good smack". So lets put aside the "what was said - how it was taken - how it was responded to" touchyness and defensive word process for a moment, remembering we are all "not perfect human beings." And on occaision we are not great wordsmiths. What we write doesn't always come off in how we would mean using live words! So OK folks , boys and girls or girls and boys :) lets get the family back on track and leave the sniping behind the woodshed. Thank you. ted
