then let me reword my statement... When you crush the egg, then you have a bunch of shells in your now useless egg. Look, the entire point is this is... dont start arguments at every opportunity. most of us can be very civil... a few have to spoil a good thing for others. Please dont spoil what could be a great group... for others as not everyone wants a fight.

It seems that for some people , others in having and expressing a different opinion are to be considered argumentative and uncivil ,
and somehow are spoiling a good thing whatever that means . Crushed eggs nonsense aside it is an open forum and if one doesn't like
an expressed observation refute it but let's not hide behind insular thinking of what could be a great group providing we have the
civility to think alike .

You know, it is a very funny thing here Ariel, no one is talking about agreeing on everything... just being nice about things when we discuss them. What would be so hard as to speak nicely? that is all that I am saying... maybe that is just too much for a web based group that does not have to face each other, but I sure hope that it is not.

What in the world do you mean by the constant "nice " reference?

Civilized people are able to disagree about facts and opinions without demeaning each other's work, values, orientations, or selves.

It is never about winning or losing .....it is always about truth no matter how unpleasant its tone.

Truth can be expressed graciously ... you don't have to be harsh.

For some people a truthful observation no matter how it is expressed will be received as harsh

not at all ... it's the reader who interprets the observation and decides on the meaning ...if it comes too close to a truth many
readers become uncomfortable .
