I agree but I am a lousy proof reader and time is tight and I did preface with "I know it's a bit rambly but I was having fun, so you might indulge me and respond".
Also no disrespect intended, but there is no obligation on your part to indulge, if you feel it's not in keeping with your sensibilities. You could throw caution to the wind and indulge, you could excuse yourself from any posts I start that don't meet your criteria, the "sty's" the limit neo.
If you like, when/if I start a new thread, I could put pro-neo or anit-neo as a caution. That would at the least inject some well needed humor
Now on the other hand, you should remember that you guys elected two Burning Bushes and a Ray-Gun so from that perspective at the least I would not be too quick to overtly critique a wonderful Canuck such as myself.
