It is very much against my nature to get involved in something that is not my business, but I feel strongly about this time. Lester, let me ask you something: If you were out in public, say at a restaurant or bar, and overheard a couple of guys in an argument, would you think, "well, its public knowledge what they are discussing so I can put my 2 cents in"? or, a young couple obviously talking lovingly to each other and you overhear their plans, would you think, "I know a new position, I think they should hear it too"?, or perhaps a mother scolding her child for bad behavior, and well, you have the wisdom of the world and you'll take over for her? I think your answer here would be a resounding "NO". Why? Because #1 it is none of your business, and #2 you may not know the whole story, and #3 it was obviously not meant for you, regardless of whether you heard it or in this case, read it. That being said, and I am now guilty of butting in where I do not belong, and I'll go back to my silent lurking.
