Post #130,169 by Nightowl 12/11/03 1:03:46 AM Reply	But this wasn't about the internet. It was about how someone wanting to meet with me in person, in my locality, who had been treating me boorishly on the internet. Big difference, in my opinion. I know how to deal with typical "internet" people, I've been there and done that. It's the ones that are close by that are the trick.

Post #130,219 by Nightowl 12/11/03 9:44:34 AM Reply	Ah, well in that case I was talking about your husband refusing to join the fora because of Ross. I said Ross was ONE of the main reasons he wouldn't come here. The other main reason is he simply has no desire to be part of this particular group, he's busy, he has to currently share my computer to do most internet things, and he really is just not interested. And that's his perogative. Occasionally he will see a post asking for help over my shoulder, which is why sometimes he helps.

Post #130,205 by deSitter 12/11/03 8:30:53 AM Reply	Owlsworth Toohey You seem to believe I thought a lot about this ephemeral meeting of the local IWETHEYers. As Howard Roarke said to Ellsworth Toohey when the latter asked him "Well, Mr. Roarke, what do you think of me now?" "Mr. Toohey, I never think of you." -drl
Post #130,221 by Nightowl 12/11/03 9:46:17 AM Reply	Well then if you didn't think a lot about it or attach some importance to it, why would it have insulted you for me not to do it?
