You can just say "I disagree" and get slammed for a personal attack. This can be said to be a personal attack! When a person takes the time to post he might feel his effort is wasted when his post is dumped. Sometimes the personal attack is in the eyes of the beholder. I won't leave CCC, but this is my last post. I do not like to be accused of a personal attack when one was NOT MADE and one was not intended. I just disagreed. How? You will never know, the post was busted. Jay On February 22, 1999 at 16:29:39, Lawrence S.
