pacplyer,

You know, I posted a humdinger of a comeback to you. But I'm gonna nuke it as
soon as it comes through. I really see no need to answer your name calling. I
plan on asking for help here on occasion and I'd rather not be seen as a
crackpot. Besides that, I really don't care if you know who I am or not. The
important thing is I know who I am. And what kind of a person I choose to be.


However before I wash my hands of all this, I'd like to clear up a few
misconceptions on your part.

..What is Building a perfect beast?
Some kind of loonie-tune revelations reference?

No, it is the name of a Don Henley (drummer for the Eagles) album. I found it
fitting considering the fast, very unconventional aircraft which I plan on
building. When I get finished building it it will be a "Beast".

You may really have
reasons, but that does not change your cowardace followed by a
non-participating intrusion asking if pilots travel. That marks you as
a useless troll.

No pac, it marks you as a hot-head who jumps to conclusions. Notice how I
capitalized "Traveling Man". This is an old slang term which Freemasons have
called themselves for years. When I asked if you were a Traveling Man I was
discreetly asking if you were a Freemason. It's not commonly known, and
there's really no reason a non-Mason would know it, so that's why I made the
statement that I knew the answer to my question after you blew up at me. You
obviously had no idea what I meant. So I knew you weren't a Mason. I must
admit though, I certainly saw no harm, and really can't see why you took such
offense at it. It's not like I called you one of the myriad of names which you
have bestowed on me. And as far as "non-participating intrusion" you better
wake up and smell the coffee. This is Usenet buddy. And, for the record, I
felt my "non-participating intrusion" necessary. Your assertions about the
Patriot Freemasons was correct. However I felt that more needed to be written.
It is vitally important when discussing Freemasons and the Separation of
Church and State that the point is made that Freemasons are NOT anti-religious.
On the contrary, the Fraternity believes in tolerance and acceptance of all
religions. Freemasons are made up of every major religion in the world, and
these men meet together in peace and harmony.

I am a Freemason. I've been a Freemason for over twenty years. I'm from a
family of Freemasons, and my dad will be the head of the Freemasons in my state
in five years. That's one of the reasons that I'm nuking my old post and
answering instead with this more subdued one. My passions get the best of me
at times. But it would appear that I'm not the only one. And I certainly
would not want the Fraternity to get a black eye because of my lack of
restraint.


You have decided to be a disruptive troll, and you deserve my
criticism. If you ever grow a pair, let me know. Then I will engage
you as an equal until you screw that up with more of your disingenuous
posting. Bob may know who you are, but I don't. Until then you're
zero.

I am certainly NOT deserving of your criticism or your lack of self-control.
Once again, I can assure you that I am in no way cowardly. But that is all I
will write on the matter. I have nothing to prove to anyone here. I know in
my heart what I am and what I want to be, and I'll be damned if I'm going to
lower myself to your level. There's enough noise in Usenet as it is and I have
no desire to be labeled as one of the reasons.

So you think what you will. You see, it's not what you think, it's what I
know.

Good day mturner, whoever in the hell you are.

Pac sezs, Fair enough.

Just how in the hell could I know about your freemason secret
handshake? I thought you were a fundamentalist crackpot "doomsday
prophet" threatening my career with the insinuation that a
professional pilot can not have a religious opinion. I was not the
only one who felt that's what you meant. Finally, you post something
germane to the discussion. O.K. you can stay. :-) I take back the
dickhead part. But if you're going to remain anonymous your going to
have to be happy as a second class citizen around here.

I've admired you guys for a lot of years. But why in the hell didn't
you just come out and say it? I'm a freemason. I guess that's part
of the thing. You don't attempt to convert others. I like it a lot.

So what, I bit your legg off. I'm a cranky old cargo dog. It's not
going to be the last time either. Good post by the way. (glad I
didn't have to read the other one.)

Dude, I'm NOT anonymous! I've made it clear, anyone who wants to know my name,
rank and serial number need only ask in a private email. As long as they
identify themselves properly I will gladly reciprocate.

Just how in the hell could I know about your freemason secret
handshake?

Well, it's not a secret! If it were secret I wouldn't share it with my own
mother, much less air it on Usenet. But that is the whole point of the term.
It is (to most people anyway) an unoffensive question which, at worst, might
seem a bit odd. To another Mason, the question is usually immediately
understood.

I thought you were a fundamentalist crackpot "doomsday
prophet"

Hehe, that reminds me of a great story. Back twenty years ago this year when I
was in high school a good buddy of mine fell asleep smoking in bed at his mom
and dad's house. He woke up to find his mattress smoldering. He ran into the
bathroom and threw several cups of water on it and dowsed the fire. He then
realized that his whole room was filled with smoke. He knew the proverbial
creek he'd be up if his mom or dad found out, so he lit a bunch of candles in
his room to mask the odor and opened the window to let the smoke out. His mom
had heard the commotion so she comes upstairs and opens his door. She looks
in, sees all the smoke and the candles burning everywhere. And there's Chris,
kneeling on the floor in front of the window waving a pillowcase up and down
trying to blow fan the smoke out the window. His mom just started screaming
and ran out of the room and down the stairs to the telephone. Being the good
Catholic family that they were she frantically called the local priest at 2AM
and told him to get over there immediately because her son Chris had become a
Satanist and was practicing black magic in his room! Hehe, I still give him a
hard time about that!
