I'm afraid I respectfully disagree with you on this one. Given the intense tone of the post, I thought I was being very circumspect by using "rigid". I thouht very carefully about the best word I could use that fit the picture. I'm sorry you don't approve.

I did post again after that, and even posted something helpful to that person, and he hasn't done anything like that since. So it's history and there's no point in saying anything to that person now. But it has kind of left me skittish.

IMO, it's generally very supportive here, but it can be unpredictable, too, so some degree of skittishness is reasonable.It was really really demoralizing, not to say really really bizarre - different from the usual disagreement type things that happen. But it was long enough ago and wasn't repeated, so I'm not sure there's anything to be gained by pursuing it. I guess it just took me by surprise and now I know it CAN happen.
I'll take time away from the main board and then think about returning.Thanks,
