That is a very legitimate complaint, and for that I am sorry.  I will be more
attentive to this in the future.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I had thought that my original topics were focused
enough, but as is often the case the subsequent discussions sometimes went
wildly in all directions.  I guess I then took the criticism of some a little
too personally. Finally when those in the discussions with me didn't voice
support or any opinions at all I got upset.  This is after all just a Lego
site and nothing of global interest is decided here.  For that reason I was
upset that some made a big deal about my threads, but by the same token I
shouldn't let it bother me.

Thanks,
