Enough of this angry BS, Ian - no one wants to read it and it gains no one any ground.
I've just deleted a ton of Ian's posts and other posts that quoted and replied to it.
I sit quiet most of the time, but I have no problem swinging a permanent BAN on such abusive attacks.
I've been here for near 20 years and its always been a friendly place to learn and grow,
but this "any disagreement is an attack on me" crap has got to stop.

I'll ban you myself if you keep up with this!
And "blaming americans" for your disagrements is too ridiculous to even address in any detail.

Just chill - and if you can't chill - LEAVE (or be cast out).
