I can honestly say I am not in a bad mood. I have been reading various threads and my conclusions have been posted when I started this thread. If the invective and venom is meant to be "in fun" I wouldn't like to be under the hammer when you get serious. Unfortunately like all forms of prejudice it is so easy to say "Oh come on it's only a laugh". I don't have a PC bone in my body but I do understand that if you say things often enough they have an effect. That effect is magnified every time someone adds another comment in reinforcement of the first. In the end those comments are accepted as normal. That normality becomes the accepted truth. My impression is that some contributors to Mudcat are an arrogant, self opinionated bunch of whingers.

Oh bugger that's me.
