LOL!

Hey Neo. Lighten up.

Why would I believe anything that CH says. If he told me water was wet I'd double check it....

You're right, of course, as usual.

What I find -- amusing? disgusting? revealing? -- is that Laz and jla keep saying they're going to quit interacting with me, keep saying that they're leaving for good, but keep being unable to do so. As noted, Laz said it should all be dropped here, then came in with that massive post starting it all up again.

If they were only people of their words, none of this would be happening.

Of course, given the tenor of your post, this doesn't seem very responsive, does it, since it's probably fanning the flames instead of calming things. But let's see whether Laz and jla can, indeed, do what they keep claiming they want to do.

if not, what does that tell us about them?

"I admit that one of the worst things I have seen is the reaction to mentioning your mother's death"

Interesting...

Some months ago, I mentioned my own mom's death on SI. You WERE there, and you DID see it...but you had nothing to say--at that time--about the ugly responses from JLA.

Well, I was drinking, and I had no business exposing myself, or my family, to public sight. Nevertheless, it happened. And interestingly...only one person spit on her memory. We humans do have peculiar traits, don't we?

This is the only thing I hold against JLA. The rest is just a back yard barbeque. But some lines of human respect are just too fundamental to cross...
