I debated some over whether to dignify this with a response. After some thought, I'd say that one of the benefits of this board is that you get a wide variety of responses to most any question, which gives you the opportunity to look at things in a new light. You're right (though perhaps a bit too belligerent about it) that some responses are less than helpful, and one or two are borderline dangerous. It is the responsibility of the reader to decide which are useful and which are not. Usually, when someone posts incorrect information, or less than well-thought-out ideas, someone else jumps in to correct the situation. In my early days as a lurker/contributor to this and other YT boards, I put out some bum dope myself. I've since made a better effort to keep my yap shut unless I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about. Still get corrected on occasion, but hey, that's part of learning. I guess what I'm saying is that I think the benefits of a free and reasonably polite exchange of ideas outweighs the risk of an occasional bum steer. (Okay, okay, so I put in a nickle's worth...)
