What a shame that the once great BLT threads have been reduced to this. Back in the day it was all about healthy debate based on fact, thorough research, but most of all respect. I had nothing intelligent to add so I just thanked those posters (some of whom are still here) for their wisdom, insight and tremendous contributions at the end of the year. I fear those days are gone....great shame.
