Azizi, you made a concerted effort to control the thread this one sprang from. If you keep escorting people to the door when you throw a party, pretty soon you'll find that few bother to come at all.

A thread is not a moderated panel discussion, nor is it an individual's blog (podium, pulpit, soapbox, radio program, or newspaper column). This is the internet. I hope you'll learn to use it for what it is, because you have a lot to contribute, but whether you know your subject or not, internet credibility has a lot to do with how you conduct yourself in the environment. In the internet, if one intends to ignore something, one doesn't proclaim it, one just DOES IT.

Your words are civil, but your effort to control is what comes through the words quite clearly. If this is not what you intend, I hope you'll show us something else.
