(meteorobs) End of Off Topic discussion

I am a bit put off with some members of the group being so disrespectful
to the meteorobs site's moderator (Wayne). As moderator Wayne is doing
what is best for the site. Dirk is the moderator of his site. Each
moderator (elf) are acting accordingly to protect the integrity of their
web page. So someone has to cowboy up and apologize. This can be done
off line. The readers need not know. Otherwise each  site will lose
creditability.
