RCU Forums - Thread closure question

I'm wondering why this thread http://www.rcuniverse.com/showthread...&postid=323475 was closed. It seems to me that it was probably Bill Vargas that closed it, as his opinion wasn't very popular. Unfortunately there were some other issues brought up along with the legitimate disagreement Bill had with posters. No reason was given for the thread being closed, and I can't see where any of the posts were at all out of line.

If a moderator can't handle his opinions being unpopular, perhaps he shouldn't be a moderator..
