Yeah, either I'm a typical troll, or I'm Troy Smith. The answer is simple. When kneem wrote the second on-list complaint, unsubscribing was the furthest thing on my mind at the time [read: Mark's lost in his own web of lies]. When Rob Seeberger complained the first time, I was a little annoyed and toying with the idea of unsubscribing anyway. So for the sake of consistency, and mulligan, I'll unsubscribe again if I get more requests. The thing is, everytime I try to solve a problem of mine by getting rid of the source of irritation I end up creating more sources of irritation in addition to the one that was there before [I don't even come close to succeeding]. Therefore, I should shift strategies and merely tolerate the ones that are there, because for the rest of my long long life I will be watched and monitored, because it is in everybody else's interest to do so. My karma. My offspring will be beautiful, it is some consolation, yes.
