I had to check the dates to make sure this wasn't an old thread: it's nice to see Estelyn around even if only briefly.

Actually that entire thread is a fictional example: I would never get involved in a discussion about the Smiths (other than to refer to Psalm XXIII) because I know almost nothing about them. Nonetheless it's rather flattering to be seen as an occasional raiser of tone.

In all fairness, though, I'm not the only one. Nor should I be, since many of those infected with 'chatitis' know no better and can only learn by example. Sometimes posting a thoughtful and well-argued response can bring a thread back from the brink; at other times it can simply kill the exchange stone dead or have no effect at all, but you can't spend your whole life betting on certainties.
