I never write on the open forum sice the  hostility can easily get out of control. However, I feel compelled to point out that the vast majority of negative comments and spiteful remarks come from mostly the same people. These are people that seem to have very little in their lives and live for the ability to express their opinions on this site and to  disrespect others is their hobby. To me, this site has always been a source for information and in general many topics start out that way but degenerate into a comntest of opinions and wills.

I used to comunicate with John ( mod 3) because he tended to have a viewpoint about the purpose of Chapala.com that was more in line with what I considered the purpose to be. However, it seems that he has opted out and mod 2 who, is much more liberal has allowed this forum to be taken over by a hostlie few. I would ask that those who attempt to control this site be warned and eventually punished if they continue to hijack threads.

Thanks
