Yawn!
Another, "this is how you should behave" thread. Are some of us totally devoid of humour altogether? Is it not enough that we already lead strictly regimented professional lives? Do we also have to be subjected to the PC brigade in our spare time? Do we have to be constantly told what our opinions should be? And, more to the point, that if we have an opinion, we should keep it to ourselves lest we offend someone unnecessarily?
If someone has voiced an opinion concerning non aviation personnel on this website, then they must have their reasons and should be allowed to express that opinion. If you or I don't like that opinion, then we should respect their right to say so.
In point of fact, Chalky, this is a prime example of why SOME non aviation people upset the applecart: WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH RUMOURS & NEWS???

Very funny, Scotty. Now beam up my clothes!
