Joe - you did the right thing. We have too many 'wipers of other people's noses' (as Monty Python might say) - if we have people insisting that bad things can happen to Mudcat and I going to prove it to you.

I remember having a conversation with a Cuban construction engineer when we were in El Salvador. He said evey day the 'boys' (the local communist guerillas) would speak with him and exchange pleasantries while the hydro-electric damn was being built. But one day, when the project was nearing completion they told him to stay away from the damn that day ... my friend knew why, and did. Sure enough the damn was blown up and destroyed. The 'nice guy' guerillas told the locals, "see, your government can;t protect you."

So now we have Mudcat friends doing us all favors by pointing out the Mudcat short comings - and then being insulted when someone doesn't bow in respect for their 'wisdom?" Please! Take a hike!
