(Off-Topic) Use of an alias, not disclose job profession, etc.? josh, Your inquisitive remarks, posed as a question, have a long history as being what spawns inquisitions. A simple example of this were those Roman Catholic tribunals directed at the suppression of heresy. Once again I have no religion, and while I will respect certain boundaries in regard to others that have strong religious beliefs, this respect is towards the person's character, not their religion. Just to make it clear that I have expanded upon what I believe you are asking, follows are your text that does not include any reference to religion nor "disclose job profession, etc.?" To:Doug A K From: goldworldnet (off topic)... Thanks AK. Why do you use an alias? Best, josh From: goldworldnet RE.. OT... Why does anybody on the Internet try to Maintain an alias? Rather than I continue with my ron-ron'ing long babble, follows I present a simple example. Safe Harbor from Silicon Investor's Go2Jail [start] My account of who has whatever religion, if any, is zero. [end] (short story w/ no music except sound of wind & water) There i was in the middle of an ocean with no paddle or canoe, between two islands, both of which i can swim to. One island i knew about, no crime no hunger no sickness, lots of good things like work and entertainments and very nice find caring people. Other island i knew nothing about. Make a choice i had to do, go to one and lose opportunity to go to the other. Which ever one i swim to will be my home forever and never be able to visit the other island. The sounding good island with nice stuff described had listed as folks there, their names listed with the following after each was listed. got gold? got God? The other island with no description available to me had listed as folks there, their names listed with the following after each was listed. got gold? got guts? Knowing that the unknowned island may be a hell of a place, this is the island i will swim to and hope the people there are good people in character like those on the other island. doug
