Hi Robert,<br><br>I personally believe in freedom of expression. This forum, IMHO, is open to all members to express their views/opinions by way of proposition, opposition and support of views expressed - but within the confines of this very platform/forum. Whoever called you is some coward who is afraid of expressing himself publicly.<br>
