Colchar, was he the fellow that took offense to anything negative said about Canada?

I cant keep track of who has done what..

As for more regular posters, a couple I have missed. But theu were always fairly polite but had opinions and were generally nice it seemed.

I'm not sure that he was offended by every negative comment about Canada but he was eager to portray an image of Brampton (Canada's Slough) as it was in the 1950s rather than as it is now. So, even a glowing comment about Brampton, such as "my colleague Ramaladingdong* brings in wonderful samosas from Brampton, when the other passengers on the 'Force India' shuttle don't eat them en route" would get his goat.

* not his real name
