OK guy's take this off list!  This is a forum for adult conversations.
 People on this list expect to be treated as adults, as I am sure you
expect to be treated as an adult.  It is one thing to have honest
discussions over differing opinions, however the tone of this
conversation (and other conversations in the past) is not appropriate
for this list.  Plese respect this list, and the members of NYCBug.
