Chris, I'm not going to converses with someone that stoops to personal insults. I know to quit while ahead. I bid you adieu until a sensible subject is entered in to.

I could blame it on > myself, but would like to think it's just your ... Oh look -- the vanity. "I am an intelligent person. I dont understand this. It must be rubbish" LOL! ... and all of that done in a format of dismissing something as a 'joke' since you were unable to comprehend it. Vanity Vanity Vanity. Could you have replied "I dont understand, please explain?" - yes. Did you? - no. Could you have just ignored it? - yes? did you - no. Your bored. Your ego needs strokes or something. You seek interaction through being dismissive, shallow. There is something you dont understand and that cannot be can it?! ...and then you come up with editorial comment as if this was some sort of 'formal document' in need of constant review etc etc; more LOL! All it was was a 'quick' email commenting on content Howard's email. Simple. Now, if you cannot understand what it means, and all you can do is attack the punctuation, call it a joke etc then, IMHO, you have some issues. So... is that enough interaction for you? Do you feel 'better' for it? Had your 'fun' for the day? or did it backfire? You need to do better. ************************************************** To post a message to austechwriter, send the message to austechwriter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe to austechwriter, send a message to austechwriter-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with "subscribe" in the Subject field.
