Thank you everyone (especially Pat :) ). This was not a case of posters saying negative things about Regent but more along the lines of people possibly misinterpreting each other's comments and blowing things out of proportion. It's kind of hard to explain a "feeling" but I started thinking "Geez Louise, if these are typical Regent passengers, I'm going to have to avoid conversations that might spark controversy or keep my mouth shut at all times" And since I am so entertaining, I'd hate to deprive my fellow pax of my witty bon mots :o
