Re: Who saw the "check your guns" message?
I saw a whole bunch of squabbling, and put the board into "maintenance mode" with a message of "Everybody just calm down, check your guns at the door, and behave!"

Re: Who saw the "check your guns" message?
Next time try "don't make me turn this forum around!"
Didn't see it, and I've been on too much today. I guess I've been off a couple of hours, though.

Re: Who saw the "check your guns" message?
How could I have missed that?
Besides, it may have been more of a tiff than a squabble.
