Very strange, Steve. What you have recently been remarking on is my reasoning and analysis. In the 3 major posts I made on the current topic, beginning with 06 Mar 13 - 05:46 PM, I used very few speech marks, and those only for emphasis, to emulate as closely as possible how I would talk. If you interpret that as patronizing, I suggest you are going out of your way to find fault. You did reply to the content, with no remarks about style. Now I am informed that my style is your major complaint. In 15 years, no one else that I can remember has been put off by it. In deference to your delicate sensibilities, I write this with no embellishment, but with an admitted modicum of patronizing.
   My post of 06 Mar 13 - 05:46 PM, was not specifically directed at you. Because a post in an open forum is for all to read, I will continue to compose my thoughts in my standard style. It will not be a terrible loss if you choose to avoid and ignore them. Somehow, I will manage to carry on.
