personally i like to think that i'm adult enough not to be offended by
struan's or anyone else's remarks. if posts are totally crap or malicious or
both i generally just ignore them.
although i am not familiar with many of struan's postings, from what i have
read i can honetsly say i have run into a lot worse. struan, to me, seems to
be part genuine critic and part mischeivous attention grabber but hey that's
just my opinion..........
