I made two mistakes... one was the unwarranted apology ...

You mean to say you are retracting your apology?!! Oh, no!!! How will I go on?! I guess I'll just have to cry myself to sleep tonight...

the second is dignifying your post with a response...

Unfortunately you've replied but you haven't really responded to any, ANY of the questions put to you. Once again, I'm quite sure you avoid these questions either out of fear or from a lack of intellect.

... we are a product of our upbringing, or the lack of it...

Omigosh. We are finally in agreement. Does this mean your father was a coward as well? Did he beat his wife - your mother - into submission?

rather, I use my full name, first and last and even middle initial...

Oh yes, that's true. Now I realize that you're so big and strong and brave...so I guess it is lack of intellect that keeps you from answering my questions.

the ignore feature works beautifully by the way... thanks SI

Beautiful. The ignore feature is a perfect metaphor for you. If only Life had an ignore feature you could make all kinds of painful truths go away.

Dear Amein:

With all due respect to you, after reading your post to Torus and of course your continued ignorance by providing any logical explanation/response to my post (http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=16446711), I am left with a feeling that you are simply closing your eyes to the truth which potentially in an emotional sense can hurt you.

But please note, and I honestly and sincerely mean this, do not take any of the comments or postings as personal. The whole purpose of the exercise is to educate one another in a respectful manner and framework. To break this framework of respect one does not need to verbally insualt the other party, all he/she is really required to do is to close his/her eyes to the truths, questions/issues raised and ignore them without making an attempt to logically and in a civic manner provide a response.

Best Regards,

Amein,

Now I know where you got your Ever Wonder... post from (the one you posted on siliconinvestor.com

You got it from this site:
orst.edu
Which interestingly does not reveal the people who are behind it! :)

In a way I just wished there was a way to the sponsors of that site to send them the following response:
Message 16441483

And if they can argue about the response in a rational, logical manner in a framework of mutual respect and understanding that would really be great.

Warmest Regards,
