Thank you for the nice response Grainne,

First of all, I have never changed my alias. I can't, I'm a cougar <g>.. I think I started my coffee shop posting on this thread or Rambi's thread, I don't remember for sure. Maybe it was about the time you left. I do remember you though and some of the original posters.

Yes, there has been long and nasty word battles on SI. I've been in some, mostly short ones. But it's a fool's game. Once in a while, I do get tired of constant harassment (not in this case with E, I want to make clear) and do pop off a word shot. But that only feeds the other side's appetite for that kind of stuff. They strive on it.. I guess they have nothing better to do. Anyway, I'm off track now.

The other night after catching up on the thread, I thought E was being a little too sanctimonious about other's postings after how she flamed me over something, I basically was an observer in. Just threw in a little comment, I would have thought it was on her side. Maybe it was a case of mistaken identity, I don't know..I usually don't follow up on cyber-stuff like that. I have better things to do.. It is a tough medium to express one's self without stubbing your toe ocassionaly. Believe me, I know. <g>

I do not keep hundreds or thousands of folders of posts of people like some do here. Where they can and do bring up stuff from a thousand years ago. Again, I have better things to do. <g>.

That's about all I'm going to say about this incident. And I will apologize to E, if my flame was misdirected.

Moving on to movies. We seen, "What the Bleep Do We Know" yesterday afternoon. It's not for everyone, I know, but it's for people like ourselves, my friends and us, I mean, those that think that way. All who have seen it, including us, loved it. I knew going in what it was all about but it did tie up a few more of my loose synapses <g> . That's the kind of stuff, I like to sit around and talk about in real life. So as far as the movie goes, they were talking and singing to the choir.. :)

So that's about it from the chilly Sierra foothills.
