Here's to your beer or two, or ten. And hell, Kralizec, you've got enough chutzpah to speak your peace, I'll raise a glass to you too. I simply ask that you stop dismissing me as a simpleton and consider that perhaps not all the world exists as harmoniously as it does in your little hamlet.
I wasn't deliberately suggesting any of that, and I personally don't see how my actual post does. But that could be me.
