I agree with your (apparent) premise that kindness should flourish in
our posts. My comment, though a bit smirky, was also a bit snarky.
Perhaps best left unsaid.
Was is Jesus who said "He that snarks upon you, turn the other
cheek."? A lot of wasted discussion appears to be people snarking back
after having been snarked, leading to snark wars and worse.
Even if Turq or others make snarky and presumptuous comments to me,
that does not give me the right to snark back. FFL deserves that
higher standard of conduct. So I appreciate your kindess in bringing
my snarkiness, albeit mild, to my attention. I vow to try to refrain
from such in the future. Please feel free to bring any lapses of such
to my attention.
Thank you for your kind attention.
