Ok, I was initially pissed when I saw this. While you do have some good ideas and good points, I think your sarcasm leaves something to be desired at times and not just in this instance. That interaction with my wife was enough to detach me last night. I am done with my grieving now. So really, while I appreciate your input, please drop the sarcasm.
I'm sorry -- you're absolutely right. I was in a cynical mood yesterday, and shouldn't have taken it out on you.
I don't want to see you dropping DB techniques, because they DO work. They just take an incredible amount of time, and patience.
