One other thing: I did indeed bring this post over to watch the flames, figuring that your's would probably be the first. I was wrong on that count, but your's certainly were the most intense.
I suppose you could consider this entire thread my little experiment in internet civility.

Keep those TWP in your own little world, we have too many young learning umpires who come to this board who need to know the basic information.
There's just not a lot to be learned discussing plays that will never happen.
Now, if its happened in your game and you need help with a ruling that's different, but this type of play is NOT going to happen so its simply a waste of time.
The "problem" with TWP, is that many times there are "many" inaccurate attempts to answer the situation, and that simply will confuse the young umpire.
Sometimes, less is better.
Thanks
