Dave, I hear what you are saying and understand, but someone has to decide to stop the bickering(it reminds me of a school yard argument -'but Miss, he started it' it doesn't matter who started it someone has to finish it)........it doesn't make anyone weak to do this, it makes them a bigger and better person than those who you feel may have thrown the(perceived) jibes.
Personally, I think this has been a mountain made out of a mole hill..ask yourself.....in five years will it matter? Why sweat the small stuff? There are bigger and better things in life to get fired up about - well, certainly, in my life, there are.
