[quote user="edblysard"]  Funny, I respect your opinion on just about anything to do with a computer or robotics, after all, it is your field of employement. If you told me this works that way, I would accept it as a fact, knowing you have done the work or designed the program yourself. But to have a fabricated persona named Dave tell me how wrong I am in the field I have worked in for the past ten years, all the while having never touched a piece of the equipment himself is somewhat aggravating. [/quote] You raise a lot of good points Ed,   Hey, I've got a lot of respect for you as well, both in your chosen field, as well as  just being a person in general. I've been doing internet based (*ahem*) "discussion" for a long time, and the one singular truth I've found is that there is absolutely no guarantee that my  (or your) harshest critics are not just stark raving lunatics.  I've been called "wrong" by some of the biggest nuts on the internet, I wear it like a ribbon. What I've found is that the internet "wagon circlers" seldom get irate with  their opponent  when they know he is wrong. Where they get angry is when they realize their opponent is right, but cannot accept that reality. (losing)  (FWIW) Where I think a lot of the local "good ol' boi" network has gone too far is the way they make mocking reference to the two you mention, in threads that neither of them has even been participating in. Little chicken$hit theatrics like that to try and divide the  forum into insiders and outsiders will never come to any good. It just inspires brinksmanship and payback.
