You post should have and would have served more purpose if it had been directed
toward the person who trolled this newsgroup. I too have been online since the
80s. I don't have rules which censor my speech. I take each item and evaluate
the best way and I do that. BTW, this is a gardening newsgroup, not the board
room at a corporation. Maybe your being a bit too judgmental.

Well, look a little below the surface. I am just being polite. I have been
reading and posting in newsgroups since there were newsgroups but, years
ago, I determined to follow a personal rule of not using ad hominem attacks
or vulgarity, no matter how tempting it might be at the time. I have found
it to be quite freeing. Others might profit from trying it, especially
those who desire to be taken seriously.

Ma'am, your reply here to this "Cliff" guy kind of mystifies me.

Gary, you are way in over your head. Stop now before you drown.
