Lauramax, I just went back to all your posts and gave them 5 stars! Heck, the only other post I ever rated was Jerry's and that was because that sneaky One Star Bandit gave that post one star.
I really do hope the forum is always kept as a welcoming place of differing opinions.....I honestly learn so much more that way.
I agree with Kathryn, the rating system should be disabled.
