"If you think "Debate Forum" is a hostile name, you may be influenced by some particular experience unknown to the rest of us." I wasn't saying that I thought "Debate Forum" was hostile. I was asking for another name for it something that isn't, in itself, hostile. Keith Little > e-mail munged. www.thecorch.com Keith Little
