Look, Dan, I never intended to insult anybody.
I took the "planet Venus" thing at flat face value, and was trying to visualize the situation.
Now I usually only see the planet at or around sunset.
Thus the thing about glare.
Since you were in the high north, I guessed at the northerly-westerly direction.
I further took a wild guess at wind direction.
Not once did I seek to discredit or belittle your story, and I really don't know what I did to generate that impression.
I wasn't saying "Nonsense" for one second. I was saying "Wow. Good tale. Rings true, Tell me more!"
I was engaging in friendly small talk.
I don't know how a friendly chat turned frosty so fast.
Everybody else (except maybe Father Terrence) has been very nice to me here.
One moment I'm a regular guy and the next I'm an armchair whiner.
My feelings? They're hurt, and you can take that to the bank.
