If indeed I am, it's not going to work.

I choose a path that some of my friends have suggested. They have taught me a better, more peaceful way to be. I thank each of them for that.

At the heart of mankinds exsistence is the desire to be intimate and be loved by another, to be accepted by those closest to us. It is a lot more likely we will find that acceptance if we choose to love and be friendly than to constantly fight.

Now I also plead with all to not allow this question to devolope into that type of fight. If you think it might be going in that direction, please do not post in it. Peaceful resistance through silence is a great way to win back APOS.

Thank you to all that have a peaceful intent.

Kevin;-)

Not just you.

We are all guilty of carelessness from time to time, but this is not carelessness, it is an attack, unprovoked and undeserved. And not just on you.

The person attacking has his posting regime now very carefully restrained. One transgression, however minor, just one, even accidental, and he goes.

There is a point beyond which even I lose my ability to tolerate behaviour such as he exhibits.

What I have noticed was a person having an issue with a signature. When he voiced his objection to it there were a rash of posts made with specific and deliberate referance to that signature. It seems when the clique has condemned a person he is destined to fail at all costs.

My response to that question was to explain where the quote came from, not some imaginary conspiracy in an "us against them" world. That just simply is not the case. I explained the source and made a suggestion to see the film. Nothing more.

And, in my opinion if anyone has a real problem with a few words that attack no one, condone nothing, but simply lend a light hearted and silly tone to an already positive statement, just seems to be way off base.

But I apreciate your right to your opinion.

Hope I didn't upset you to much.

Happy day,

Kevin

My referances were not inclusive of your postings or replies at all. I was refering to other people who deemed it appropriate to encourage a volitle response from Rob.

Wonderful. Now we get a moral guardian  [message #17087 is a reply to message #17082] Tue, 28 October 2003 22:58 Go to previous message

We always manage to get one of those when something goes wrong. And an invisible moral guardian that complains of cliques is like a solicalist who earns a million dollars a year.

"Watching" indeed.

I am exasperated with behaviour like this. It's back to taking a gasoline leak on embers. Do I really have to switch IP addresses on in public view? It's no big deal to do it.
