I can't speak for anyone else, but if you will review the replies I've made
I have not called anyone any names, I've simply politely asked questions.
If you answer my questions I can ask you some more questions and then we can
have a meaningful dialog about your idea.

As for anyone who does call you names, well that kind of behavior deserves
to be ignored, so why not just ignore it and continue the dialog with those
people here who ARE interesting in hearing what you have to say?
