I didn't single anyone out do you have a guilty conscience or just lack of facts. since I don't need capitals to get this off the ground and I have a couple of minutes to respond. where did you come up with this accusation ? are you paranoid or simply forgot to take your chill pill?
your hardly in a position to accuse.
