Thread, more from James Hopkins into my private message box. He should speak publicly. ------------------ To: Spots From: James F. Hopkins Tuesday, May 12 1998 3:26AM ET Mr. Spots; I've been busy or I would have got to your message before now. Again I'l reply with a privet message , this time just to see if you elect to post it to the thread again, and it's Ok with me if you do. To: +James F. Hopkins (11880 ) From: +Spots Monday, May 11 1998 10:33AM ET Reply # of 11902 Thread, a private message to me follows which shouldn't be private. I apologize for for the intrusion, but it isn't my intrusion. I won't engage with James, but I will post any flames he sends me. Thoes are your words, (1) so how is it you wont engage with me yet post the message to me ? ----------------- Following is the message I'm being denigrated about. here again your words..I had to look up denigerated as I have never used that word and would be reluctent to use it as it sounds a little racist, having looked it up I see it's not. I take it you mean to use it in the context that I am trying to "defame" you, as that seems to be it's primary useage. Gosh I didn't know you were famous, maybe I should ask for your autograph.. BUT any way (2) You are the one who posted the message to the public, so if there is any defaming or denigerating to it, then you did that to yourself. --------------- This is one of the most informative threads on SI, and one of the most civil, regardless of one's opinion of APM, and I will not see it degenerate lightly, nor, I'll bet, will others here. ---------------------- Some more of your words , perhaps you cant see it but in posting the message (3) you acted directly oposed with what you said your objectives were. This is typical of persons with a duelistic personality, you should try to look at it or your in for some having hassels with yourself for the balance of you life. ------------------- Your intentions to defend stitch may have been noble but your methiods lack talent, on top of that he did not need defending, but you seem to could use a little. Now I would like to make clear that if I get a resentment I'm very up front with it and will tell you in a heart beat if I have one..and as for accusations of animosity..that almost hits my funny bone.. and still sounds to me like someone who is trying to flatter themselves. ------------ I'll leave you with these thoughts.. <1> If you elect to post this, don't start off by saying to the thread I apologize for for the intrusion, you don't need to apologize for any thing unless you know or feel you are wrong. People who apologize in front of the fact are most often looked on by others as being servile. ( and likely untrust worthy ) <2> If you don't want to engage with someone post it by clicking on one of your previous post ( ie post to your self.. I do it all the time..of course if you mention some ones name or allude to something they said then they have a right to rebuttal ) <3> Learn to ask yourself if your actions are in conflict with your objectives. c u L8r Jim Ps messages I get and post on SI run 3 privet to 1 puplic several who do not want to toss gas on the fire just happen to see things the way I do, but it would not be cool to get them involved, and I prefer to do my own rebuttals as having some one come to my aid, is sort of saying I can't handle the heat. ---------------- That reminds me of a saying I like " IF you can't handle the heat stay out of the Kitchen "
