My thread wasn't a flare and I'm glad it wasn't taken as one either. Having read what you have posted I suppose I can see where you are coming from.
In this instance it is constructive and I am probably guilty of jumping to the conclusion that it was another one of those ones like that thread about the "fuel starved Seneca at Shoreham". That thread did get me ranting as it seemed there were so many people with ridiculous theories that perhaps even verged on slanderous. When the guy was axquitted I must admit I smirked quietly.
larrylarmor's points in his first three paragraphs are very true.
I therefore retract my comments! (for the first time ever!)
