'Anyone else care to take a gratuitous parting shot?'

You mean like,'And that makes you part of the problem.'

Irish you're right, I don't like having the door kicked open and someone come in both guns blazing,especially when, at that point, I had no idea what the person was talking about. I tend to have this urge to want to fire back under such circumstances. After some brief research I finally figured out what it was all about, the event had already taken place, so there's not a whole lot to be done, short of burning one's De Dannan records, which apparently our friend is not prepared to do. After all this I find I'm part of some problem or other, this I can't be bothered trying to figure out...must be from the saying, if you're not part of the answer etc...
