Have to say, I don't mind negative comments, those can be constructive criticism. But having gotten 4 negative comments on two recent postings makes me wonder.. was my honest compliment taken to be a sarcastic post? If that was the case, I'd rather correct that. Nobody will say. Hmm.

Could be, I tend to ramble, and the negatives were just ways to say it's too long to read, I clicked out after 3 lines. Ok. I could use that info. Or maybe the opinions I expressed aren't shared by all? Well, see more if I was looking for umpteen "me too" responses, I wouldn't post. Opinion pieces are meant to be bringing up another way of looking at something, open a topic for discussion.

Maybe I should go happy, under the premise that someone felt they didn't have anything nice to say, better to just vote and run. I can live with that, intended as a kindness, that's much better than ripping me a new feeler with mean comments.

I'll also consider, sometimes people intend to post comments, and the page times out before posting, so there might have been more than what I'm seeing.

So anyway Robert, I think that was a very good question. :)
