To *varying* degrees, yes.

No, no, no, no, no.  Jon can say whatever he wants; and I should be able
to respond with whatever I want.

I don't hate Jon.  I love the man.  I met him.  I enjoy our verbal 
sparring.  That's all it is to me.  Verbal sparring.  I only wish Jon &
I could verbally spar over beers at a tavern.  In person!  Wouldn't
that be fun?!  Deep Who/Pete discussions over beers.  I'd love that.

Fair enough.  I'll calm down my rhetoric.  I only do it in the spirit
of the discussion/argument.  Jon's intelligent.  He handles himself well.

Again, I don't hate him nor do I want him not to post his feelings.  His
opinions are just as valid as mine, you're right.  

I get wound up sometimes, that's all.  I apologize.  (Hear that, Pete? 
I apologized.)
