Post #3,045 by DonRichards 7/30/01 12:13:51 PM Reply	I apologize I'm sorry. I was wrong. The brown shirts comment was out of line. I could have made my point in another way. For what it's worth, it wasn't intended as insulting. I was thinking of the original Mussolini brown shirts when I wrote that, not the Nazis. That doesn't make it any less insulting, but I thought (admittedly feeble thinking) it was a mildly humorous comment. I see it wasn't. Once again, my sincere apologies. I should wait a few minutes before I post something like that and ask myself if it was said to me, how I would feel. I still don't agree with you on this and many other things. On the other hand, there are many times I find myself saying, "I wish I had said that" when reading your posts. "When it crosses my mind to do something, I don't ask why, I ask why not. And usually there's no reason not to, so I just go ahead. It's given me the strangest collection of hats"
Post #3,066 by addison 7/30/01 2:10:14 PM Reply	Thanks. Its not that the comment was out of line - but that you didn't explain why you were making it. For what it's worth, it wasn't intended as insulting. C'mon, I didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday. :) still don't agree with you on this and many other things. That's fine - heck, if you think there's a real parallel, say so. But if you don't explain, then its hard to have a discussion. Might as well be slashdot. :) Addison

I'm finally over being pissed after two weeks. You, Boxer, Aston and I could easily wipe out Conrad, Laurent, Scott2 and a cohort of their choosing, in any battle of wits. A gauntlet is thereby tossed earthward.

Post #3,766 by DonRichards 8/3/01 3:22:38 PM Reply	Had? I beg to differ. The argument was won. The insult was retracted. "When it crosses my mind to do something, I don't ask why, I ask why not. And usually there's no reason not to, so I just go ahead. It's given me the strangest collection of hats"
