I deleted the first really spiteful reply, but the hypocrisy that 
continues to be shown gets right up both of my nostrils, hence I 
couldn't resist the above, greatly toned down response.  This will 
surely give an indication of how strongly I feel on issues such as this. 
  Rules are rules to be applied evenly, not on a pick and choose basis.
