Ed-
I think you and I, my eloquent friend, have shown an excellent example of WikiCooperation of late.
Well, let's not pat each other on our shoulders too much just yet. I believe there is a fundamental differences between your rows with William, and the problems I and other users have repeatedly had with Jtdirl's bully-like behavior. I have never seen William behave like a bully. You usually do a good job of accommodating others, and if they are reasonable, they try to accommodate you as well. That is the way of the wiki. But this kind of bullying is what Jtdirl does all the time when he does not get what he wants. It is very, very sad.
I am not a "turn the other cheek" kind of guy. I am a person who feels that someone needs to stand up to the bullies, or they will soon run the entire playgrund.
Regards,
Erik
