As it should be, we are all entitled to our opinions and preferences.
Thankfully, with my killfile, I will never have to see The Ranger's stories
about anything.

Those that make the most noise about it are also the very ones that
read everything I post so I win both ways. <EG>

I've seen this on other groups. People reach their tolerance limit
for whatever insanity invades the group, walk off in a huff or
announce the same, but then, after a time, remember the good parts of
why they used to read and post, and come back.

Welcome back.
