I think we've got two separate issues here iemanja Jun 2024 #6

Yep and wasn't trying to suggest otherwise TexasDem69 Jun 2024 #21

I agree with that. But the OP has the stink of conspiracy theory to it. Happy Hoosier Jun 2024 #42

Nothing in the OP suggests that. intheflow Jun 2024 #45

TexasDem you sound a little defensive. I think we're talking about two different issues here. No need to conflate Martin68 Jun 2024 #14
