   Tony, I know his response wasn't any better, I just saw it escalate and   
   it bothered me.  Some people react violently when accused of things.  If   
   someone had told me I was a liar and a cheat because I asked a question,   
   I wouldn't have even bothered responding, I would have just left the   
   room.  But if he did that, he wouldn't have gotten some pretty good   
   responses from others (not including me).  I think Steve is great, I've   
   read and responded to numerous posts over the years, and he has the   
   goods.  He has bad days though, just like the rest of us, and this isn't   
   the first time I've seen a question posted, where his response has been   
   to be sarcastic or scolding.  Nothing against him.  Just stating what I   
   see.  Dominick reacted to what he saw as rudeness, with more rudeness.   
   I'm hoping all that will stop now.
