How do you arrive at that opinion? I don't have any specific data, but my guess is that I delete as many posts from them as from anyone. And, I know that I don't give fitump any benefit-of-the-doubt, especially when it's a response to certaini other posters with whom he has a history (nor do I give any benefit of the doubt to those other posters in similar exchanges).

On Rita's OP -- maybe I should have just closed the thread instead of deleting it. But, I thought that EagleEye had responded and the thread had served it's purpose. Since it started down a path that would have required some moderating, I took the easy path of closing it.
