Bob,

If there were a required indoctrination to CHR, your posts would serve as the perfect reading material. I honestly believe that most people are not judgmental of others in this hobby. Most are “learning” from others or are at least open to new ideas, and some enjoy sharing their knowledge with those who will accept it. But, I’ll be darned if some folks don’t think that “their” way of doing things is the “best” and “only” way, and they feel compelled to disparage you if you don’t agree!

Your opinion on this matter is timely, and as usual, you have presented it in well-written prose. CHR has active participation from many diverse people, and it would be a real shame if the “attitude” of a few were to stifle the lively and open conversations that take place on this forum.

And Bob, thanks again.
