Yeah, thought so, the real Chris is back.
Ok Chris, I'll ask you this yet again: Please point out an instance of where
I have "flamed" you, so that I may apologize, and we can both put the
terrible tragedy behind us. Please again note that taking you to task for
poor behavior (or even what you would term "trolling") is not a "flame" by
anybody's definition.

BTW: Was your post an example of "trolling" (your definition)? I don't seem
to see any vituperative lanuguage per se.
