I wrote off list to this bozo but I was not particularly threatening. If he took it that way, I will wash my hands of him. If he would like I will post my off list message, with one small excision. It was off list because I used a four letter word to get his attention. I will also post my follow up to his reply to me. I am losing patience with most of the a**h***s who post political sniping, trying to keep it just enough below the radar so it won't cause a real reaction. Ok, I admit, sometimes I'm an a**h*** but only because I get drawn in. Well, get over it. I'm trying very hard to keep out of this crap, but I'm argumentative by nature.

You can't convince anyone on a mailing list of the rightness of your cause and you'll only piss off the other side, and annoy any innocent bystanders.

Thank you, John. As usual, someone else states my intention much more tactfully than I. My apologies for any incitement.



Did _you_ get a threatening missive off-list? I've just had a very interesting glimpse inot someone's psyche.
