Neal, I disagree on this one.

No one here has any duty to answer any post.

Period.

But if one decides to answer, I agree its best to maintain some 
politeness. That doesn´t mean saying yes and amen to everything, but for 
me it means to stay away from attacking a person.

Always have respect for another person. Even, well especially if you 
disaggree.

Thats what I try to live to (and sometimes likely also fail to live to).
