I am not at all opposed to a good discussion. In fact, if you talk to my family, they will volunteer that I tend to go looking to start an argument merely for the entertainment of debate. But I don't think going off the deep end is ever needed.

I will maintain my opinion of certain posters, be it good or bad, but I refuse to resort to name calling or to throw decency out the window. Since I've gotten a little older, there are few or no high school kids posting on Ranchers, and I intend to make it look that way. Intelligent conversation can be acheived by everyone, but one must decide to do so.
