I don't think this is a fair representation of the thread as a whole. In fact, I think a careful reading of the thread will reveal that the "nasty" comments have not resonated and have been relegated to the dust bin where they belong, with an apology or two along the way for good measure. This thread could have gone off the rails a number of times, but has generally found its way back onto solid ground and I'm glad for two things: 1. the Mods are watching it (they should) 2. The Mods have left it open.

And I think Rex is spot on (as usual) below:
