Out of curiosity...are the Board's guidelines posted somewhere? I don't remember seeing them. Personaly, I can do without the flames, but if flamed will try to use noninsulting language to reply. It does sometimes liven up the board but constant harping is boring in itself.

I am new to the board and have gotten some good info from most posters, especially ECH MD. I have gotten some of my best info from the folks that are doing the arguing. Once you get past the personalities and prejudices, they all have something to offer...may not agree with it myself but it may be what someone else is looking for.
