Tom: I have not seen you on any professional lists I frequent and have
always tried to conduct myself in a professional manner on every list I have
been on and believe I have a solid reputation to that effect. If you think
my posts are not professional, you have never mentioned it on this or any
other professional list over the past decade or so. I won't tell you all the
professional lists I am on but I believe your opinion of me is not worth
replying to any further. It hurts my feelings that you say such a thing
after years, and years, of trying to maintain only a high level of
professionalism.
But, I will take it for what it's worth and try to do better going forward.
Thank you for your reply.

Subject: Re: WindowEyes.dll and Scripting.dll
The snitty tone of this list? You should take a good look at your own
posts, Rick. I've never seen such inconsiderate posts bashing Window-Eyes,
the GW staff, and insulting everyone who doesn't use your all mighty
automated, rush to market, do the work for you, bloatware generating,
grossly inefficient, security risk riddled .net Framework IDE. You even
blamed your vicious post of yesterday on Window-Eyes. Strange, no one else
on the planet has experienced such a problem that could be directly
related to Window-Eyes. I've never seen a so-called programmer so
adamantly averse to writing code. But then again, I'm from the old school
when every line of code mattered and efficiency and stability was the
number one priority. I realize those are things of the past for most, but
contrary to popular belief, not everyone.
This is why we need super computers to run all the one size fits all
auto-generated resource hog programs which pervade the market today. If
programmers got back to programming, that in-and-of itself would double
the speed of our processors.
This isn't intended as a swing at you, Rick, just an honest reality check.
I didn't want to use VBScript initially either, but it didn't take brain
surgery to figure out just how powerful the Window-Eyes object model is
and how much work GW did for us up front to take advantage of that power
as quick and easily as possible. And finally, it is undisputable that
their support is second to none in the industry. But we're all only human,
and there are very few who wouldn't have written you off long ago in light
of your attitude. perhaps some soul searching is in order. Just a
suggestion.
Regards,
Tom

Hi Ron: You are a professional and it should matter to you whether you
are a PR person or not. I don't like the snitty tone of this list which
has developed over the last year or so. The technicals have been more and
more replaced with personal, not so subtle, digs at folks who ask
questions. There could be many reasons for it and I fully understand most
of them. I will stop posting for awhile to clear the personal cobwebs I
get from many of the posts and I would guess you guys at GW won't miss me
very much. I will try and only jump in if there is some technical I can
help with or someone mdirects a question to me.
