You're right, it was my fifth post. My first four posts were about surfing. I can see that I remembered it as my second post because it was the second topic I responded to.
I used the word slam in my reply to Ann because that was the word she used. I took it to mean disagree with. And yes, I took the replies to mean that people didn't agree with me. Which I had been forewarned about and didn't mind. If I minded, I wouldn't have posted about Hagelin in the first place. I did not remember the woo woo graphic. ________________________________ From: turquoiseb <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2012 11:42 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Eastwooding: PS to Ann "I'm not going to shut up; it's my turn!" --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long <sharelong60@...> wrote: > > Thanks, Ann but too late about being slammed.

Although I rarely read Share's posts, much less reply to them, I'm going to do what I know that Judy (our official Upholder Of Truth And Honesty) will not and point out a few discrepancies in the account above. First, the post mentioning Hagelin was Share's fifth on FFL, not her second. Second, I just glanced through the replies to this post, and the closest I can even *imagine* to being a "slam" was one of mine, replying to Hagelin's silly theories -- not to Share -- with a simple graphic: I didn't read all of the responses in the thread, but glancing through them briefly I saw *none* that "slammed Share." Not a one. I challenge her to produce the one or ones that did. I'm posting this as a reminder of the thing that happens so often here, and that I think that happened in this case, and has warped Share's memory of events. A number of people responded to her posting of Hagelin's silly ideas by making fun of his *ideas* or of *him*. Why do I get the feeling that Share interpreted this as "slamming her?"
