I have not been paying attention, so I was curious as to the views.
It is hard to convey the tone is in black and white, so my personal 
metric is
three vitriolic posts on the same subject by the same person MIGHT indicate
someone is a mood, having a bad day, or is really torqued. Ce la vie, folks
  can bet emotional about issues and information.
It would be nice if I could keep up on all the goings on, but I can't.
I ask for OPINIONS, facts, and news. the list has been fine for me to 
keep up.
thanks all.
