    Despite my short tenure here, I have read enough to form an opinion that hex made the right decision for the betterment of this board. If your opinion differs from mine, so be it.

    I really wasn't kidding about the subject line in this thread...

    There is really no need to drag this any further.

    Drop it.

    ...an opinion does not have to be credible because it is not subject to any kind of "credibility test"... Gotcha

    ...and you don't have to be around any length of time to know the "truth" - (tenure and enlightenment do not at all correlate) Gotcha again!!!

    ...I'm struggling a bit with the concepts, but please accept my humblest apologies for not understanding you...

    Opinions are just that. They cannot be proven true or false. This is why they cannot be the subject of a suit for defamation.

    One doesn't have to have been around for a long time to know that a cent is a hundredth of a dollar.

    I accept your apology, George. Thanks for understanding.

    So your opinion is not fact, therefore it is not true... Makes sense! Thanks!!!
