I'm not sure ~ judging by Grampy Bobby's posting record ~ that he thinks the content of quotations is important.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyI have no problem. I participate fully in the goings on here. I do not run away from topics and from people's posts and comments and questions.

If you don't like it, you should start a blog ~ where you can simply delete or disable comments you find inconvenient. 🙂
