What did this remark mean, Frank?
You complained a certain kind of internet work was very time-consuming
for you. Brian responded with an explanation of how he did it without
consuming much time. He sounded very helpful, to my untutored ear.
So what do you mean, then, "your shift"? It sounds like a sarcastic and
hostile remark ... what a person might fairly call "aggressive" ... but
in all honesty, like many of your comments on line, it doesn't mean very
much in the end. There's a nasty twist to it, that doesn't result in
anything.
Equally aggressive is your irrelevant aside about the SHCA Zoning
Committee. It's well known Brian is not involved with this body. Why do
you drag it into a conversation with Brian? I hope you are not trying to
fake a connection between Brian and the Zoning Committee. He's just a
neighbor like you and he deserves the same respect you deserve.
In any event, why should this Zoning Committee seek you out for your
assistance? Who are you? What courteous business gesture did you ever
make to this Zoning Committee, that might inspire them to recruit your
assistance? All I've seen you publish about this Zoning Committee is
complaints. Yet you take it as a point of pride that you never, under
any circumstances, will talk to any people you're complaining about.
Why, then, should they seek your assistance in conducting their business?
You're obviously a good man in many ways, Frank. But this sort of
criticism is useless. It wastes the neighborhood's time.

By the way, no one from the Spruce HIll Community Association or their
Zoning Committee has contacted me about obtaining a disc, nor has a
single one of them said "Thank you." Sadly, some of them only seem
interested in criticizing their neighbors' efforts to distribute a
verbatim record of a public meeting. It would be just as easy for SCHA
to tape these meetings and put them online or in an archive themselves....
Having owned a successful subscription-based video website in the
past, I'm pretty familiar with posting video footage online. There's
no need to school me on it. Nonetheless, John Ellingsworth was nice
enough to enquire if he could do that for me and I gladly handed the
footage over to him. I honestly don't have the time to once again
reformat the footage then upload it. I believe I previously stated
why my wake and sleep-time CPU cycles are already in use. I believe
John will be posting it on his own web space and I'm sure he'll let us
know as soon as it's available. Maybe he'll be more receptive to your
video tutorial.
