I don't see that I tarred all the contributors with the same brush ,certainly didn't refer to you anywhere ,I think you and might I say myself (modestly) have been a rareity in remaining consistent through the last several months. Well I know I have. I think you've joined the party mostly .Tops to me are ones that are significant ,day to day ,week to week ,anything that pertains to this country only is not anything that worries me ,just to clarify.
I'd hate to think anything I said turned people off this thread ,I just throw things out there ,off the top of my head usually , sometimes I wonder how I've survived in this game.
But I do agree you certainly don't get enough thumbs,you deserve more so I've just thumbed your post even though it was knocking me and if I could thumb mine down I would just to even it up.
But I still think what I said was what I think and inoffensive
