WTF ? It was a complement ! I was being sincere.
Sorry if I didn't use emoticons or such but I never trust them much anyway. Have we gotten so convoluted here that honesty is miscalculated? No wonder there are so many misunderstandings here. People these days don't understand the up front words of my generation. If your color emphasis of the words "this" ( indicating a supposed Sawtooth running $GB RAM and SL) and Mac (PPC Mac) was accidental then when composing rich text your mail client has accomplished half the work for you.Saves time. Hyper? Jeez, how sensitive are folks out there? Anything above low breathing is hyper? I don't get it. My generation is very different. To many teachers that some generations heard yelling to shut up the class that were ignored anyway? I get this stuff from my God daughter too. She mumbles in the car which I can't hear over traffic and road noise and if I talk loud enough for her to hear ( she has hearing problems)over the noise in a minivan she asks why I am so hyper. Communication requires a speaker and a listener. But as researchers found in the early XXth century was that the figure - ground formation defining visual perception also is in play in aural and written communication. In other words like Harry Nihlson wrote " people see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear" Sad if people do not trust direct communication anymore.
