Just to be clear with you, I did not, as you believe, criticize your initial response simply "because it was you" and everyone wants to pick on you. Right. Actually, most people don't want to pick on me, but those who do are unable to control themselves. Despite this knowledge, I chose to respond as someone was writing for advice, and I felt the response you gave was uninformed, incomplete and a disservice to the contributor who asked the question, and who may not know that you don’t know anything of what you speak. I could have given any response, and you would have taken issue with it. I've previously cut and pasted text from undeniably reliable sources in posts of my own to this newsgroup, just to see what happens, and invariably the treehouse club feels obliged to take issue with them, even though I'm repeating something word for word from another source, one before which they'd readily genuflect had the post been under the original source's name (people who are mean towards those whom they consider inferior also tend to be exceedingly obsequious towards those whom they consider superior). This proved that they were attacking the messenger, not the message, despite all their claims to the contrary. I am satisfied you have once again demonstrated your staggering ignorance of "the way things work" in a very large number of posts in this thread, as well as your wholesale intellectual dishonesty in an unending stream of self-contradictions and passive-aggressive attacks. I am truly not interested in the type of dead-end, semantic quagmire that discourse with you always entails, and further it is a huge disservice to the group, to whom I offer my apology. As stated, I only got involved this time because of the uninformed advice you offered another, as if you knew something, and with that I am going to take your excellent advice and stop wasting my time. You've spent a lot of time criticizing me, and very little addressing the OP's question, which rather belies your claim. Again, to RAP, my apology. I’ll try not to let it happen again. It will happen again. It always does. I know the pattern well. Perhaps if this group were less a battle of egos among a small group of testosterone-soaked males, and more a discussion of a love of aviation, the noise level would be lower. But this phenomenon exists in just about every discussion venue I've ever seen, so I'm not optimistic. |
