    @ Tommy1733 . . .

    Tommy your courseness and incivility towards the host offended me and caused debilitating chronic eye and brain strain. I think you owe me a most sincere apology combined with a promise to never ever be so incredibly harsh and inhumane. That's it I'm done. I'm calling the AG of Oregon and lodging a strident complaint. I think I'll follow it up with a sternly worded letter because that's guaranteed to get results in America.
