I wasn't going to get involved in this but now feel I must. There have been about three disruptive threads since I have been at Pet Talk (2 yrs.) They didn't start out that way but some members got rude, the last being a 19 year old boy who was asked to leave. In my humble opinion, this thread is heading very much in that direction and should be closed. It is not pet-related. If members want to PM each other that's fine, but let's stop the public bickering.
