Pam,

I was not commenting with respect to only your posting activity specifically.

I find you intelligent and reasonable, however, there is a definite negative tone that permeates this and other threads on a daily basis by a sarcastic few, hence the need for Agora to intervene.

And it's a myth that anyone bullish has zero tolerance for an intelligent discussion of the pros and cons. Please don't be ridiculous. There is a flurry of discussion, back and forth, and then there are those who get banned for continually pushing the envelope past the limit.

See dinkie anywhere? DRVEN and I have spirited discussions coming from differing perspectives. We remain friends who differ. That is the form discussion forums should take. I sure don't get how you imply I or anyone wants a zero tolerance policy for enlightened discussion.

The rose colored glasses thing is getting old. Today we are looking at real IP litigation wins. This is not fantasy as we were told years ago regarding the validity of the patents by many bashers. The patents are in play.

Agora has set a zero tolerance policy for those who work to disrupt discussions like this.

Have a happy Friday !
