Ah... well, me being an ass is that obvious, eh?

Thank you for giving me the benefit of the doubt instead of writing me
of as a jackass.

Onwards...

Anna, I apologize. Please don't let my misbehaviour discourage you from
participating in this newsgroup.

As noted above, I have lost patience with some other folks whom are...
well, willfully ignorant. People who seem to purposely misunderstand
what is going on in order to pick fights with others. It's not really
stupidity or misunderstanding, but hostility on their part.
Unfortunately, it seems to have infected me a bit and made me a bit of
the jerk I don't like in others.

It was very inappropriate for me to just lash out at a newbie. It is
clear you don't know quite as much as some others here, and that is not
a crime. If it were, there's any number of areas I'd be such a criminal
myself.

Please remain and continue to share your thoughts and learn with us.

Jackie,

That post was so well-written.......if folks in other groups would take
lessons from you, cyberworld would be so much happier!

Have a good 2008, and thanks for your civility and courtesy, on behalf
of all who hate "flaming" etc.

We all live and learn, especially fom specialised groups.
