As someone else pointed out, EVERYONE has an opinion.

Just as I am entitled to my opinion, Fry was entitled to his. I just hope that his friends and supporters don't get too upset if some of us disagree with it.

VBR,

Definitely. We're all entitled to our opinions, and to defend them rationally and politely (tends to work better if you do it that way.)
However, some opinions have more weight than others. I can understand it if some people think that the opinions of Bishop's second in command, and a senior flight commander of 60 Squadron, have a bit more weight than mine.

Yes, and if I think that the opinions of the CO of 60 Squadron as well as several other members hold more weight, that's fine too.

VBR,

Sweet, blubbering Jehosephat - will you let it go, man? Loyalty is supposed to be a virtue. Don't give it a bad name! There's GOT to be more to discuss that what's-his-name.

Craig, you're right, there should be more to discuss than Bishop. And I AM trying to restrain myself. Basically, as long as no one comes up here, on THIS forum, and starts bad-mouthing Bishop, I'll remain happy to keep my diatribe to my web site.

How's that??

VBR,

Al Lowe
