"What concerns me is that the majority of them seem to have taken on the 'folk is what I call it' policy that proliferates here"

The ONLY person here who has that policy Jim is yourself.

Not one other poster has said anything remotely akin to that. Not myself, not Dave, not Nick Dow, not Al Whittle, not the Snail, not RTim, not Vic Smith, not the Sandman or Hootenanny or any other poster.

You alone state what is folk is or what isn't.
