LRChops, please don't be offended, but this particular poll question is a foregone conclusion on a board like this. It serves no purpose unless you are hoping someone comes along and answers, "Yes, I'll turn mine in!", so we can pile on that unfortunate individual. Otherwise we will read the same reply for several pages, learning nothing and accomplishing nothing except aggreeing en masse one more time.

I learned a long time ago that I don't need to post every time I login here. Sometimes (most times) I learn more by just reading.

Closed.
