Every forum has its own personality. When I post in the Oracle OTN forums I do so in a manner consistent with its standards.

The reason this forum is what it is is partially that it is totally unmoderated. We get people such as Bob Jones, for example, who would be thrown out of almost any other forum I can imagine if he used the language he tosses around here.

So welcome to one of the net's last true democracies where freedom of speech still exists: For better or worse. <g>
