I disagree with Mr. Dundee on this one. The point from Harris is that we be nice to one another which is not the same as saying that we shouldn't express differing opinions. Most all of us enjoy this hobby because it is relaxing. All of us should work hard to keep this fun and the dialog polite. Mike Kone in Boulder CO
