Yes, Bill, it's self-inclusive. However, I am at the stage where I can usually observe my own typical emotional reactions and positions with a certain measure of detachment and humour...which helps to lessen their grip on my thinking. Usually. It's an ongoing challenge.

I find lately that there are very few people whom I cannot find something likeable in, Martin included.

There's simply no sense letting his coarse language get you or anyone else bent out of shape. Actually, it doesn't matter.
