So have many, many people. However, in the interest of balance, it does no good to shout down anyone who disagrees or offers criticism. Risking the decline of this thread into a shouting match via rabid, reactionary replies and insults is not the way. It's counterproductive and a distraction. If anyone doesn't like an opposing view, comment on it, but offer a considered rebuttal. Let the other side sling the mud. It is they who look stupid later.
Note: although I've quoted OF1975 above, this isn't aimed at that person. It's just a general comment as I can sense where this is heading.
