Nothing about hornpiper's posts seemed troll-like to me. He's adding information to a discussion. Sometime's I wonder if these discussions are here to solve a problem or to just 'win the argument.' I would really like to follow these discussions and learn a thing or two, but it really sucks to read through these things when a couple of specific people have no respect for others' opinions and have no intention to actually discuss and find new information on a topic. Do people here realize that your credibility as a historian is lost if you flat out refute every other argument without hesitation? How can a person learn if you don't at least consider other sides of an argument with an open mind? [ May 02, 2005, 11:44 AM: Message edited by: molotov_billy ]

Why? It's convenient, and you can easily burn it onto a CD if you want a 'hard copy.'

Well that doesn't make much sense.
