I presume you're referring to this statement, but feel you're being a little harsh. I think it's quite clearly meant tongue in cheek.
Up until now I had seen this thread both as interesting and informative and don't detect any hint of bitching. It's good to hear different opinions, and perhaps more importantly why people hold those opinions. So I'm sorry but I see your comment as the first one that is largely uncalled for.
As you so rightly said it is one persons opinion, You mentioned that you like hearing different sides of the story, So how can you say that my post is uncalled for if is just my opinion?
Besides which that comment was directed at my dad, How would you like it if I presumed something about your parents which was untrue?
