I don't think it matters to them.

It's the attack that counts. Some of them probably don't even care about the record- even though they know it exists. I really don't think it's an issue of facts- it's really about behavior. And finding some specific person to go after is fun for some people (but perhaps not at a conscious level)- that it might be inconsistent with their point, or that their message might be completely at odds with recent prior posts, is not important.

I used to think it was a game one played on the net, and I played it for a while- then I realized the people playing were serious. That made me stop :-)

Dale, I think this post is way out of line.

If you want me to leave the board, just ask. I'll leave on my own accord if my posts are causing you undue stress. I thought the board was open to any points of view, provided they remained within *this* boards TOU.
