Yes, and I know of a few who just read mainly now and we loose their resources because some one else decided to do battle with them - even off list, this caused a loss on list. Several people have told me of problems with other members over the years. I can't say who, it is a trust - I don't save those messages so they can get into the wrong eyes. But I can say - we would have a far better list if people would only read, visit and save the ( words that do not need to be used) for silence. Every one is entitled to their own opinions in research. Even if it is to be proved a myth - that can be done with polite facts. No need for any other reactions. Then people won't just read - or start new lists to get away from hostile posts.
