Rookie, your texting comment was kind of funny. Bwframe, what's the point of having a forum for people to post in if they are just supposed to Google for answers?
An INGO member sent me a very supportive and informative PM, answering my questions in detail and explaining why they (and a lot of other people) disagree with some of my comments. I am going to go ahead and post my response here.
"That's the kind of stuff I was looking for. I can deal with people disagreeing with me or explaining why they think what they think. I welcome it. This is all new to me, and I honestly don't know how I feel about some of these topics. I'm glad for you and some of the others who took the time to educate me rather than mock me."
I try to wait till a question is answered before I throw sarcasm in the mix.
