Re: Really?
In Response To: Re: Really? ()

David,

"With your writing style, twisting of words, warping of thoughts, and ignoring the references already posting, it really isn't worth the trouble to help you understand."

I'm sorry you feel that way...but I have to ask why you keep responding if you do not think there is anything productive to gain?

"You broke a social rule, on a board such as this, you can only use the exact words someone wrote against them, not what you interpet they said, and especially switching words around."

If you are going to complain, at least be fair. I used and compared direct quotations from your posts repeatedly. If you disagreed with how I interpreted them, then you could have explained---like I asked you to---how they were, consistent. You twisted the interpretation of my argument (claiming that my "thesis" was something far from anything I had said), and I explained how that was incorrect.

As for the "impression" that I am trying to "win" a discussion here, that was not my intention but I see how you or others could come to think that. There seems to be a lot of "taking sides" on this board rather than just regular discussion. If that is expected, then maybe I better get some random friends to give me "Attaboy, NM" and "Touchdown, NM" after my posts to establish their merit and to fit in. LOL
