Mark & Erik, Actually, I appreciate Jason's posts/comments and, compared the multitude of off-topic, drama-based-banter that I have read on this list over the years, I am more annoyed by either of you attempting to chastise an on-topic poster over his "style". Jason has an intriguing perspective that doesn't carry the ego of some other posters on this list, and I find it enlightening and amusing. While I may not always agree with him, I would much prefer the limited experience with a passion for the technology compared to the subtle condescension of an egotistical old guard. -----Original Message----- On Fri, Nov 11, 2011 at 1:48 PM, Mark Katerberg <mark.katerberg at gmail.com> wrote: > Do you have a blog?
