Thanks for replying, Dr. Bob.
I guess the reason I was so taken back by the PBC is that I had no intention to direct the comment towards anyone in particular - PB or otherwise. Civil or not, it is an observation of mine that the things I described are to be found in society. I hope whomever was offended by my post will take this into consideration.
I wish I had a better memory to know what was on my mind when I composed the post. You know, I don't even know who it is who might have taken my statements as a personal attack. Since I can't really place myself in an objective position, I really don't understand how my statement could have been taken as a personal attack. In other words, I just don't see it.
I can't apologize until I understand what I did wrong. I'll work on it. I like the exercise in civility that can be practiced here. It is one of the things that I consider a most important learning experience. It is far more important to me to learn civility rather than continue to be defensive against criticism.
I'll work it out.
