It's been pointed out to me that my post in reply to a message from Bill
Wingstedt could be read as actually meaning to call him an idiot. I
believe a close reading will reveal that I was agreeing with his brass
tube/carbon rod trick and complimented him by asking him to make a
couple of them for me. However, I can see how it might not look like
that. So I want to make clear that I have no negative opinions about
Bill, haven't met him, and agree with his post. Ok, maybe I have the
negative opinion that he shouldn't call himself an idiot.
This isn't the only time where I've been called on something like this,
so I thought I'd better make sure that there were no hard feelings where
such were not meant.
(The other time I remember was on a bicycling list where people had a
discussion about whether some kinds of plastic water bottles were toxic.
I asserted that only organic goat skins were safe for water, and that
vegans were out of luck. Someone I knew actually had a hard time
deciding if I was serious. I wasn't.)
