I think there are very few posters here who haven't insulted someone at
one point or another. The notable difference is that a few minutes
prior to calling Ramon a troll (for absolutely no reason at all) Mark
Kent attempted to lecture me about insulting people and calling people
names in another thread. Then he turns around and calls Ramon a troll
(which he is not IMO) based on what?

Well. Thank god that Roy Culley never calls people names or insults
anyone.

My problem with that approach is that coffee gets bitter after 1-2
hours. I prefer a fresh pot. (I intentionally limit my coffee drinking
to about 2 cups/day.)
