I agree completely. Personal attacks have no place (in my opinion) on
Klarinet. While I don't always agree with Dan's views posted here, I
regard his contributions highly. They are, for the most part,
well-written, interesting, and free from the "my opinion=indisputable
fact of nature" way of thinking which can be so pervasive in our line of
work.
