it's just meant as a warning. it doesn't make there anything wrong with your posts. it is very good information.

Well, what I meant was that the trigger icon can't keep ANYONE from reading the title. And I didn't keep from using it because others here use it and because if I didn't use it in the title, someone might accidently click on the LINK. So the title shows the topic.
Now, if my title had been ambiguous -- if it gave no hint of what the link was going to be about, then I would have automatically used it, not wanting anyone to be distressed. And that was why I didn't post the article here.
The point is, if someone is triggered (REALLY triggered, not just offended), they sure aren't going to open the darned thread to begin with....
The trigger icon just seemed REDUNDANT.
But if this forum needs redundancy to feel safe from harm....
