Hello Thom!

08 Dec 02 08:18, you wrote to Barry Blackford:

 BB>> No one but thom has a valid opinion or point of view, thom you
 BB>> are one of the idiots

 TL> Barry, so nice to hear from you again.  Over time your nastiness and
 TL> lack of common sense and manners has increased.

 TL> Fidonet is alive and well, and since it accommodates small minded

 TL> themselves.

and your retort back to Barry's makes you look better?

You got after me because I:

A. Quoted back Roys cuss words
B. and that in anger I cussed him

I dont think, since because of your lineage, that cuss words really offend
you, I suppose you say a few choice phrases if you stub a toe or knock your
head when fishing for something in the trunk of your car? I suppose you are
keying in that such usage of vocabulary whether it is quoted or authored
isnt conducive to a civil debating atmosphere, regardless of the forum?

Well your retort above while free of cuss words doesnt meet your goal of
civil debate does it?

Why is it Thom that you can do it, others cant, is it one of those things like so:

"But thats different"

?

Hey we all get heated in debate, but expect to be called on things Thom
when you sanctimoniously object to echo conduct but then imbibe in it
yourself.
