I tend to treat the single digit negative posters like internet trolls - ignore them. If you don't feed them (ie; respond yay or nay), the thread dies. Breathe in, breathe out, ignore the post, move on.

You are absolutely right. Ignore them, they won't have an audience, they'll stop.

I agree with everyone here. Jimmy is doing something good for the people on the gulf coast and that is really all that matters. He has every right to express his opinion, weather I agree or disagree really doesnt matter. I enjoy his music, and he is always willing to help in situations such as this. Those two things alone are enough to ensure I will always be a Buffett fan.
