No problem. I think you saw how hard I was trying to ignore the names, the insults, the curses. I'm counting on the fact that you saw it.
I'm not sure exactly how it works when it comes to insults though. Does shear volume count more? Because if that's the case you certainly realize BO and Mike are the points leader there. Or is it the brightness of the flame? Personally I think that piling more and more wood day after day makes a brighter flame than a single piece of wood.
As always, I'll live with whatever decision you come to.
Something else though. I'm going to keep a list this time. If that's alright with you. Every name, every juvenile little name change. Every venomous bard thrown in underhand. I'll post it weekly. I'll have to think of a humorous name for it. Hell, I'll take any suggestions.
