None of those topics, or any other, get near the coverage on V2020 that Christ Church does. Too make an analogy: V2020 is like a household water spigot for most topics. It is a fire hose for Christ Church topics. I’d simply like to see the fire hose turned down.</span></font></pre>

On the other hand, if an individual honestly made such a threat to me I would make different assumptions about it. It would be treated seriously.</span></font></p>
