> I'm, not pointing any fingers at you.
I know that - I never thought you were.
>It's just that you're the only one listening to me right now. I thank you for that, more than you know.
Oh, I think I understand. I am often very pleased when people seem to be listening to me too. You are most welcome.
> It just seems to me that fires always gets less than a kind welcome. Even from the beginning of his posting.Yeah. He does seem to go around hitting nerves. If I were stronger it wouldn't bug me as much. But the implications are too much for me. I get the urge to be uncivil and that doesn't help anyone. Different people seem to find that with different posters. Interesting...
> I think people deserve a second chance. And maybe a third and a fourth if it looks like they're trying. And I've never seen any malice in anything fires has posted.No, I don't think there is malice. There just seems to me to be an insensitivity to how people are likely to respond. I hope I don't get a blocking for that one...
> the neverending battle.:-)
I appreciate your comparatively objective stance on this one.Really.
