And there is absolutely no point in challenging those comments, as evidenced in previous attempts.

Are positive statements those in favor of waiting for John and not to speculate? That's an honest opinion - i think the problems come from judging those or scolding people that don't share that opinion. That is telling someone they should feel like you, which just doesn't work
Shariing your feelings but not judging others if they don't agree, leads to understanding and acceptance, but may never bring agreement. Why do we have to agree? As Jaye said earlier - what she has learned on these forums is not to tell people what they should feel or say.
We could try to break the habit this way.Next person to mention John L in terms of complaint about BT1 has to go out and find a funny joke and bring it back here.
