Mr Carroll, sorry,'Jim', you can hardly expect people to come onto this forum using their real names when it is plain to them before they join that they risk being subjected to rejoinders that they might experience as vitriolic and personalised, not to mention heavily sarcastic, that their views will be twisted, misrepresented, and disrespected by posters who appear to have anger management issues.

Let's get back to the topic of discussion, please. Personal squabbling is not of interest to anyone but the squabblers.
Please note that the use of a consistent pseudonym has always been accepted at Mudcat. Indeed, it is a good protection for many people to use a pseudonym instead of their real name. Now, back to our discussion.
