My goodness Ms. B, I am flattered that you took the time to "investigate" my prior posts. I know you think that you caught me red handed, and you are right about the literal content of these two of my statements:
"...if I wanted to follow the RB board I would AND I do not appreciate her bringing it over to SI."
However, since I don't follow RB,...."
I should not have assumed that you would know that I was referring to the PABN RB board. Yes, I do follow some other boards on RB. As to my bringing over posts from there, well that is another story. In one of the cases you have cited, I credited someone on RB with bringing my attention to an article in NewsDay and then I posted an excerpt from the actual article. I seem to recall someone on this board (wasn't it you?) who sharply criticized another poster for not giving credit to someone else for "finding" some info that was posted here. See, I was just trying to abide by your rules. Guess I screwed up again, huh.
In the second example you cited, you are right, I did post a quote, but it was from someone who had established his credibility on the subject, IMHO. But the real clincher is that I posted it in response to a question by another interested party. It was not simply "out of the blue" as a bash or a hype - as so many of the posts here are.
In third example cited, well....follow that one back and you might realize I quoted the RB post as a response to one of YOUR carefully chosen excerpts from the same post! In other words, YOU brought it over, as usual.
Keep up the good work and don't worry about my feelings, I take criticism quite well and I know you only do it to help me along in this crazy BB world of bashing, hyping, innuendo, lies, agendas, etc. By example, you are teaching me a lot about deciphering right from wrong and encouraging me to look for the facts in all posts, including yours. Thanks again for your concern.
