So ??? is the community suddenly just a few detractors? Does this mean I, and others like me, are not part of ???the community???? I really get a little concerned when I pretty consistently see these grandiose statements on behalf of ???the community??? rather than
stating individual opinions, or the opinions of a specific sub-set.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
