Ok back from golf ( I shot a 70 in howling wind),      

QUOTE "  calm and sober post"    END QUOTE

Posting in a calm and sober manor has no bearing on anything.

Its very strange that so many people who have been posting on forums and
mailing lists for many more years then even I have, Still don't seem to know
anything about how to make a post or how to read one.

Even though someone may use a term like ( Mr smarty pants), That doesn't
automatically mean that the poster is flaming or insulting the original
poster.   Oh wait maybe I should have used the lame leet speak sign for just
joking :D  .     You all need to take some lessons in diction.

Remember this is TYPE, not voice.   You cannot hear the inflection or tone
in my voice so some time's you have to ask how someone means something when
they say it.     That or either really know how  to read well.

Now when I say moron then that's an insult for sure but if I do say it,  it
s well deserved. 

This and almost every other problem we as a society have to deal with stems
from everybody always just passing the buck when it comes to people talking
out their asses and saying oh well they will learn in time,   or hes just
young let him be, or even worse just ignoring the person and letting them
continue to be ignorant and influence others who are younger making them
more ignorant then they already are.

We have to put a stop to ignorance and start calling people on it and
correcting them, Instead of just letting spread more ignorance.

That's why when I disagree with someone and I'm not sure if I'm correct,   I
form it as a question instead of an absolute statement.     That way no one
can say I'm a know it all.

Ok I'm done with this topic.   No more post from me, you can all have the
last word....

Kyle,
 
Your experience and technical knowledge undoubtedly have the potential to
build you a fine reputation on this mailing list.  Unfortunately you're
shooting yourself in the foot by choosing a tone that is inappropriate and
uncalled for.  Calling other people names doesn't add any more weight or
validity to what you have to say, so you might want to consider skipping
that part.  This isn't the WWF, let's all focus on the questions asked and
deal with them in a polite and professional manner.
 
If even a moron like myself is capable of a calm and sober post like this it
should be a piece of cake for a pro of many years like you.  Please don't
prove me wrong by submitting the most pompous and insulting reply ever.
Please keep sharing the technical information, I'm sure a lot of people
appreciate that.
 
Regards,
Gebi
