Sorry. His posts reek of mockery to me. I don't think I'd assume he was a real TMO TB even if I didn't know he wasn't. It just seems as though a lot of people here--not just you by any means--are surprisingly vulnerable to having their legs pulled by this sort of thing, including those who've been here much longer than you. I was really rolling my eyes at the general tendency rather than at you personally.

He's had several different shticks; this is his latest. He does tend to beat them to death. For awhile he was posting stuff taken from Quaker meetings as if it was TMO pronouncements. Perhaps I've just missed his > many different facets. But this is obviously a sticking > point for him. He doesn't like the TMO attitude at all, no. He finds it amusing to satirize it, and I guess he gets a kick out of folks taking him seriously. I find him generally rather strange, but if you go back and look at his posts from a couple of years ago, you'll see a different picture than the current one.
