  The problem is I don't enjoy being called insane and stupid, especially when
it's from people who do not take the time to read and understand what I wrote.
Which I think was incredibly clear. As I mention money twice in the first
paragraph and the last. The real point though is even if my post was stupid, no
one has the right to say so, Such post should have been immidiatley rebuked by
the moderators.  This did not happen!!   If the moderators do not condemn such
statements than they are in effect supporting them.
