Is it your position that a person needs permission to post the contents of PMs to them, or not? I'm not clear on this. Do you identify some difference between the posts I sent to Laz and those you sent to me, which also didn't include any specific limitation in them that you considered them private? Nor am I sure why you would so strongly object to my posting them. They were quite nice. But we can probably work something out to keep them private if that's your strong desire. I'm not sure exactly what possible TOU violations I should be discussing with Jeff. Perhaps you can enlighten me?

On more than one occasion you have repeatedly asked--it might not be too much to say hounded--people who didn't answer questions you asked why they didn't answer your question. Since you think that is appropriate behavior for you, I assume you accept that it is appropriate behavior for others. So please answer the questions I posed to you in this post: Message 17391087 Thank you.

Are you going to answer my question? I not that you keep bugging people who don't answer questions you think they should, so I assume you expect the same standard should be applied to you.

Did you see, Poet, that E claimed that we have no relationship? How wrong she is. We've had a relationship for years, now, and we still have one. Sometimes it's been very strong, sometimes it's been a bit strained, sometimes it's been rocky. Right now we're going through one of the rocky periods. I recognize that. But that's okay. Ups and downs happen in all relationships. I understand that for a while, at least, you're choosing to talk to me through others, indirectly, rather than posting to me directly, and that's okay. I understand that it'll take some time for us to get back on track. But we can work on it. Meanwhile, it's okay with me if you want to keep communicating through others for the time being. It doesn't hurt my feelings.
