Ahh Heavenly, I posted just a few days ago about taking a backpacking site out of my favorites because of (to me) the most amazing negativity. The only good thing about when things spiral out of control (not that this one is out of control) on the internet, if you care, you can look back and see exactly where it started. I think this will end soon. Hahaha - I was editing this when I realized that things went wrong with my smart-ass original post. Busted again. That's part of why I apologized for it, but the karma was already spinning, wasn't it. Some of the things I like so much about this forum are the honesty and the generally positive, supportive, and informative nature of the posts. Sounds like a workshop ad, but that's the way I see it. I'm trying to follow Aldous Huxley's advice when someone asked, "Mr. Huxley, what should we do?" And he answered, "Be a little kinder to one another." Been working on that one for >40 years.
I don't do deals with rep. I just use it to give people feedback. I wish there was neutral rep I could do instead of neg, but what ya gonna do
