Good point. One of the advantages of an open forum like this is that bad advice can be challenged. Of course, on some forums, the moderator allows gangs of idiots to run of the informed and rational.

Hi Labman whether or not people are 'idiots' is a matter of personal opinion.

Of course we don't all share the same opinions, but I would never consider someone to be an 'idiot' just because they disagreed with someone else.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion , are you suggesting some people should be prevented from posting because they share the same opinion as each other which differs from yours?

Just under the ounce.
You always make me laugh John

For me, I know the person I trust on Dogsey to give me the best advice. Everyone else I tend to decide for myself if I think it's sound advice. We all need to take responsibility for either the advice we give or the advice we take.

Like I've said many times: you can give advice, you can't force someone to take it.

I think Labman may have come from another forum (the same one I came from) where there is a lot of this going on (the reason I left in fact).
