<<But I must point out that your correction to me was also
un-Mayberry-like. Using caps (as in WRONG) is universally known to be
the same as shouting. Also, comments such as "Wow Garry....I don't know
what you're hearing," "Garry was extremely mistaken," and that I
"Somehow" mistook Barney's words, are rather insensitive,...... >>
Gary,
You are right and I'm sorry. My meaning was not to be against you but
to convey to everyone else in a desperate way that Barney had not said
the words that you thought he said. My concern was that NOBODY believed
that Barney actually said that and my frustration was toward that.
So far as using CAPS and yelling....I know that is normally what that
means *if* you type in all-caps for sentences but in the way I was using
them it is normally taken to draw attention to certain words when using
"plain text" as we do here on the Digest. We can't "bold" letters or
use color to draw attention so CAPS help to draw attention to important
words.
That said, I did re-read my comments yesterday and I agree that I could
have said things MUCH better and in a more Mayberry spirit.
