> Anyone have ideas that maybe could help Dr. BOb not feel put down when someone jokes with him, that would lead him not to block people? I feel he could have a chance to grow and learn. This site is about education, and everyone has the ability to learn and grow.

Maybe this is an issue that Dr. Bob has, and not one that the poster has. That is, it's not about us (or one of us) posters, but about HIS perceptions. XXX is being uncivil - is that true? Is that REALLY true? (that's a page out of the book of Byron Katie, "Loving What Is".

Which reminds me that, yes, BT, Dr. Bob DOES get a cut from the double quote links to Amazon if they lead to a sale. It's a way of funding the cost of running these boards.

The difference between a joke, a comment, something being taken out of context... all of this is a huge challenge in online communication. I think that no emoticon in the world can substitute for face to face discussion.

Or, as Dr. Bob has said, "it's an issue."
