I am glad that you have called a halt to this. I am afraid that I wasn't thinking when I sent in my opinion on this subject. I forget that I am several days behind, I probably should have read farther before putting my two bits in. I don't think that I said anything abusive to either one, just that I wanted them to quit calling each other names, and to quit fighting. I am still trying to catch up on my reading. So I hope that what I wrote didn't get anyone angry. I apologize if it did.
