Yes, I know I can just not open his/her posts but I would rather not be tempted to reply to them!

Thank you
Strictly a guess here, but could it be the person who calls us "weenies" because some of us believe there is global warming?

Understand totally! Sometimes there's a negative gut reaction when you see a rude, sarcastic or supposedly funny response, so to avoid that response could mean avoiding that name in the future. Sorry that there isn't a perfect answer, as is so much of life.

Easier to just ignore posts by certain posters.

Maybe they are afraid of being "NEEDLED?"

My thought exactly. Are some people so insecure in their viewpoints that anything said or written to the contrary elicits a negative emotion so strong that they need to assure that they never have to see (hear, read) it? I personally enjoy reading points of view that do not line up with mine. Sometimes, I even learn a thing or two thereby.

There are times when I read something and get annoyed or angry. Before reacting, I reread it without placing an emotion into any of the words. Kinda like I am just chatting with a friend on the front porch.

Everyone has knowledge. Sometimes, it is knowledge you do not want to hear. Happened to me once on this forum. The guy rightfully called me out. Now, I just try to read and absorb. I don't know everything and will make mistakes. I feel the same for everyone on this forum. But! When someone has extensive knowledge on an issue, I am extremely grateful. Saves me lots of headaches. Wouldn't eliminate any poster for this reason.

You ask a simple question, and you end up being lectured in social anthropology
