"You well know that Neo can no more ignore a post to him than some people can let a telephone ring. It's just not in his nature.

I rarely answer the rings on my phone. Maybe one in twelve. I check messages every couple of days. I am amused by people who visit me and become so unnerved they lift up my phone and answer for my residence. I wish people wouldn't do that.

"He'd probably have a stroke if he had to do it. Do you want that?

I would mourn the loss.

As for me, I've been ignoring CH for about a year now. Betcha you never
noticed that.


I've noticed it. With sincere regret.

You are one of the three or four SI posters I most admire.

Would that it were mutual, but I accept that that won't happen until I rebuild my reputation.

"Betcha you never noticed that. People don't notice the quiet statements that others make."

And I'll betcha, if you visited me you would not notice that there are no dirty socks in the corner of my living room either. Should I be ticked off about it?

I was checking what I had missed, and caught this. You have gotten to know me very well, Karen:

I wasn't talking about me. That's Neo's bag. You well know that Neo can no more ignore a post to him than some people can let a telephone ring. It's just not in his nature. He'd probably have a stroke if he had to do it. Do you want that?
