Tinroad, as painful as it must be for you I applaud your efforts to calmly and logically expose the weaknesses in Cassandra's claims.
As this forum is dedicated to the discussion of e.Digital and their business it is expected that poorly thought out ideas and assertions will be presented from time to time. Far better that these erroneous arguments are debunked by superior reason then by name calling and mud slinging. It is clear why you were once an effective moderator on this board.
Long's often raise concerns that the efforts of Cassandra and others to view e.Digital negatively at any cost must be met with equal response lest sincere newbies be misled. I believe that responses such as yours go far further in educating lurkers about the true nature of posters here than any other tactic. Eventually those that would have as their motive only to malign will become known as such and, as a result, rendered harmless.
