I am anchored with Rosalie on this one. There are alot of people that I have
dealt with over the years that I have found abusive, abrasive, and sometimes
distasteful. That however does not mean that I don't learn from them. Most
often these are the very people that can teach us the most.
Yes, Norm may be abrasive, even sometimes over the top. We all know Norm has
a tender spot on law enforcement. You know it. Then why poke him in the eye
with it? But think about this -- Norm has a wealth of knowledge that is
freely shared. I would hazard to say he probably leads most of this list in
the 'been there done that' category. He has provided several solutions that
saved me $$.
The gun/law enforcement issue maybe alot of fun. But it has the same
arguments, solutions and problems. Go to the archives all the answers are
there. No need to rehash. I agree people should be tasteful and not out to
offend. I try to treat people on this list like they are in my home. But
banning people from the iist who have contributed is not the answer.
Is the wiser man who knowing he has won, remains at quiet with himself.

I'm against it.
