I agree. I've been impressed by Steve's ability to "dish it out", "take it on
the chin" and then "keep coming back for more".  The net is full of nuts.  We
have anonymous nuts.  alias nuts.  incognito nuts.  nuts posing as other nuts.
and we have even had nuts hold a group discussion where there was really only
one nut posting and then arguing with himself.

I won't mention any names, but I think one would certainly pop into anybodys
thoughts if I asked.  :)

Can't let the nuts run the good folks off.  Otherwise the net becomes useless
except as a nuthouse.  There are already plenty of places for nuts to collect.
