rtd,
Please speak only for yourself. Both GE Jim and Alley have great value on this board. Saying one is more popular than the is just plain not the right thing to do.
The problem we are seeing as these two discuss their postions is a basic problem with this medium as a from of communication. Something in writing can be taken totally wrong versus if it was said in person would not be. The lack of voice, inflection in the voice, nonverbal etc can be a real cause for taking something negatively that was not meant.
Best regards,
David Dodd
