But it must have to have got rid of those irksome over intellectualised individuals. I am not certain about their names but one was Houston something or other.

Soldier Boy. I believe that Houston_Diamond added a lot of interesting comments to this thread. I don't think that he was irksome or over-intellectualising on this thread. I regret that Houston changed his name to "The Problem". I suppose he had his reasons, but I still am saddened by his name change.

Soldier boy, you wrote in your 18 Jun 08 - 08:58 PM "Lots of quick -fire and shooting off at the hip here. Me thinks too much mental sparring and not enough heart searching about what 'Folk' really means to you...At the end of the day we are all different with hugely different tastes and the 'roots of 'folk' are so diverse that you will never get a consensus of opinion. Never. So let's just agree to disagree"

I didn't agree with you that what other people and I were doing was "mental sparring". I call it "discussing". Be that as it may, it's too bad that you didn't read the rest of your post and follow your own suggestion to "agree to disagree".

Perhaps you're disappointed that this thread didn't turn out the way you wanted it to be. Well, I'm disappointed that you couldn't just let this thread flow but felt you had to once again speak badly about one of this discussion's participants.

I said it before, and I'll say it again- what a shame.
