Hi Jonny. You made the top 10. Last night on a California thread, some idiot insisted on lecturing me about not using the pronouns you and yours. In his world, we must all write (and presumably speak) in the third person. He was very smug and pleased with himself. I tell ya -- it takes all kinds, and sometimes it seems we have all of them here on FR.

Don't you love being lectured to? :)

You made me curious, so I looked up the thread you were talking about. The "lecturer" was a real prize, wasn't he? :)
