Dr. Bob,
You shouldn't feel the need to apologize for the inconsiderate actions (being nice here) of one or two individuals. It doesn't matter where you go on the Internet, there is always someone waiting to push someone's button. It's part of the Internet experience..... I suspect that not many Babblers out here expect you to monitor every post, every minute of every day.I just wanted you to know how grateful I am that you have given myself and others a forum to not only discuss our failures, but our successes as well. You have done everything you can to provide a safe haven for us to come to, and for that I thank you.
I'm very glad that you're out there!
Peace,

> Some of you may have noticed some unsupportive posts here recently. Sorry about that. I'm trying to block them, but it's not a simple thing. Sometimes it turns into cat-and-mouse, and sometimes the mouse is determined, and resourceful. Also, the more blocking I do, the more innocent people get blocked. I'm especially sorry about that, but in my opinion it might be the lesser of two evils.
