Jaybird, I have a suggestion. Instead of just leaving the forum, log out, create a new account under different name, lurk for a while and then post.

You'll see by just reading for a while that there was nothing personal in this conversation, just normal honest banter. And don't think you are unlucky, getting in a heated discussion with Wouter and Jake on your first post, that's a really common occurrence <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
