Madam, the PM I am referring to was dated Monday Jan 14, 2002 and timestaped 11:04 AM ET. It also makes reference to some other matters which the people involved have agreed to keep private (E knows what I am referring to) so I shall not post it. There are innocent parties who could be injured by that. You sent the PM in response to a post I made on RWET. You said someone had sent you a link to it. I can provide the link to that post if you wish.

What am I incorrect about? My question remains the same. And I guess the answer is Yes, you took him up on a posted (general) offer that he wouldn't post to (but it was really about him posting'about' you) someone who asked him not to, believing that it would be understood by him to be a one-way deal? As I said, amended, So you actually assumed at the time that Laz's offer, as he understood it, was that he would not post to or about you (or anybody, for that matter) if you (they) asked him not to, but that you would post to or about him any time you felt like it? I wonder if there's something in law that says agreements that offer nothing to one party are in their nature suspect. I believe that if I asked someone not to post to or about me, in response to an offer from them or spontaneously, I would understand that it was a mutual arrangement. Otherwise it would be a trick I was playing on them, and unfair. But that's only my opinion. Maybe others think that one-way toorabouts are normal, and would have assumed that Laz understood that was what you had in mind. P.S. Gee, you made a nasty ad feminam crack. (You seem very emotional this evening.)
