You don't need to reply here, I just need to say what's on my mind, unburden myself and hope that you read it and that it made some sense to you all. A combination of taking time away and the onset of BW, Brian T. dee and now, johny, has stopped me dead in my tracks and brought me to the full realization that I need to re-think my participation here and how much time I want to devote to it in the future.

I can't begin to count the number of times we've been met with believers and/or trolls or how much time we've all invested in giving them the benefit of the doubt or encumbered this board in what has proven to be a fruitless effort in trying to help a person get started or even giving the time of day to such obvious trolls as Brian T. and dee.

I guess I'm disgusted with the drain on my own time and what I perceive as a clear lack of profit to the discussions here. I'm going to back off for a few days and reconsider what it is I want to be doing here and how I can become more selective in choosing what it is I want to become involved in for these fruitless and tiresome efforts seem to serve no other purpose than to disrupt the free flow we're capable of maintaining here.

So, before what is normally my good attitude goes clear out the door and takes me with it, I need to withdraw for a short. It's really kind of ironic when you consider that it's the believer's and alleged believer's who have brought about this disgust and yet at the same time, for me, there's nothing funny about it.
