Well, my good advice to myself, which I don't always follow (obviously) is
to keep my sails out of ill winds! It's so easy to just "hitch" onto a
negative thread and before you know it, you're surfing dirt! ;-)

I agree, Kit.  The days when there are arguments and insults on the LUG are
real downers.  I'd much rather read "thank you's" and "I agree" messages
than some of the insults that fly around here.  If it makes you feel good
do it!
