  I am glad to hear or read that you do.  >;)  And
of course, as I stated I did find Andy's comments
amusing, but most likely not for the same reasons
you did.  But amusing none the less.  However to
use someone/assembly member as an object of
amusement on a serious subject such as this one,
is frankly, out of line.

  Agreed.  But promoting hard feelings through baiting
such as Andy did, is not expectable behavior, unless
you are an adolescent.
