and repeatedly, at the fault of my willingness to give you the benefit of the doubt - i have removed you from that ignore list after the passage of a period of time.
i think that anyone here would agree with me that you have twice now in this very thread - dodged legitimate discussion of the issue at hand in favor of striking at me personally.
i stated my opinion that - the EPA - while a critical part of our ability to protect our environment - DOES have some pretty trivial and nonsensical regulations.
I simply used the gas can argument to illustrate the point that when we are down to regulating the style of pour spouts on a 2 - 5 gallon gas can for filling up boat motors, weed eaters and lawn mowers that things have gotten out of hand, and i think most reasonable people would agree with that statement.
YOU on the other hand have ignored all other segments of the discussion and went directly onto the offensive in blaming my "ability" to pour gasoline or my "decision" to remove the cheap POS filler neck in order to facilitate easier pouring rather than use the leaky, slow flow, cheaply constructed filler neck that comes with the thing.
I will offer you no more back and forth over this as you cannot discuss it without striking at the person posting the comments.
one day Tribesman you might live in a world where your opinion is the only one... but until then, grow the **** up

Couldn't have said it better and I tried about 10 times and then gave up.
