meathead...ot..a sincere thought for your consideration... you stated "i used to pummel hpeace.....jim kelley and i finally ran him off the thread" you are an intelligent individual...to boast of running one off is not in concert with true intellect. to drive one off because of a differing view is akin to driving one off because of different race, creed or color. don't diminish the ability to communicate your view with the inability to understand another. the rules of engagement are not always what you establish.......this was learned well in the tet new year of 1968...study strategy, read the masters, apply a human element, it gives more credibility....no need to destroy....for what do you win? victory over that which is a pile of rubble...to win is to convert or ally for beneficial purposes... you can hit a long ball with your aluminum bat....but when you move up a league, you are handed a foreign piece of wood, that you must adjust to...how you adjust determines if you can hit it as far... for your edification, as far as me, i am very real...the reference to time on my hands and running a corporation indicates lack of business exposure...if i was in your business, $100m revenue is a herculean task....but in my business moving the contents of a super tanker from point a in the gulf to point d, with intermediate stops at b and c, can be done without breaking a sweat.....even at $16 barrel i hope you take my comments to heart...success is not in what you know, but how human you are...to drive one off for whatever reason shows a lack of humanity...if you deem one comical...laugh, if one is foolish...ignore, if one can be harmful....defend. words are never harmful to the secure...only actions...use what god gave you to create....not to destroy...
