they would probably choose their words more wisely and not use the harsh and inflamatory criticism that they use on the internet. My questions go to the point of asking why that is? Does the internet relieve us from rules of ettiquette? Some, if not many, apparently believe so.

I can only speak for myself... but I will say things that same way here as I would when toe to toe with somebody else. I would think that alot of people may use the anonimity to hide themselves but not me...
Most opinions are on a take it or leave it basis anyway. It's all subjective to whomever is talking and who wishes to listen.But if you have nothing to say..... say nothing.
