Oops! I've just learned that I didn't really understand what the word "flaming" means on the Internet. I thought it just meant arguing, though I looked it up and learned that the definition is much more hostile than that. So that was a bad word-choice on my part -- I wasn't trying to imply anyone was being insulting or hostile to one another. It's all very civil, but I did think it was an off-topic argument. I'm trying to drop it myself but realized I better clarify my bad choice of words....!

[On a side note, I wonder why a busy thread always shows a flame next to it if flaming has such a negative connotations.]

Dropping it,
Sidony
