Your right Kellee. I should have thanked "he who shall not be named" for calling
me a moron, twit , snotty snob, a broken record and for suggesting I take a
class in grammar (although Ive considered this). Thank you very much :o) I'm
also pretty sure that in reference to myself, it was I who may have been the
first to use the terms "pedant" and "troll-baiter" so really there was no real
annoyance on my part. I am guilty though, of stating that there are a few who
are unimaginative, ill-equipped, inane....oh yes, I did call Eep a ning nong for
which I will forever be in a state of chagrin. :o)

How about letting "semi" be the indicative word here.

Now now. Perhaps I have learned not to be inflammatory. How about you?

Eep has stated himself that he has filtered me so Im fairly sure my last post
filled with his belittling remarks have not bothered him in the slightest. I'm
sure too that I haven't the personal power to cause anyone to do anything
against their will. If anyone were to react in a way to my posts that would have
them thrown off then surely I am not to blame. I just don't have that kind of
power. Likewise, if I'm ousted as a result of my posts Im sure you would
understand that Eep would certainly not be to blame either. I have confined
myself to this one and only thread amongst the thousands of threads within the
AW newsgroups and the thousands that have passed by over the years here. If it
is you Kellee that is annoyed...heck I don't blame ya! Mute someone.
Cheers,
Kit
