Always!

I've met some of the more infamous curmudgeons off this newsgroup (and other
chat groups), both at the hotel and at fly-ins. *Without exception, they've
been TOTALLY different in-person than they are "in writing". *Maybe not
outgoing and gregarious, but certainly not unpleasant.

Written communication -- especially for those who choose to remain
anonymous -- often appears much harsher than those same words would sound if
spoken. *It's something I must continually guard against, since I tend to
sound stuffy and boorish in writing, when we all know I am debonair and
classy in-person.

I don't know what Maxwell has against parties, or my signature line, but I
suppose without Bertie around maybe he's simply lonely...?

Just my read on him, but for some reason he equates both your sig file
and my Bio having been placed on Wikipedia as direct attempts at
"upgrading" ourselves on Usenet. His problem is that if he actually
knew either one of us personally my guess is that he wouldn't feel
this way, but I could be wrong.
Sorry he feels so strongly about these things but that's the way it
goes I guess.
