I was talking about the idea in the Boortz piece.

You dismissed the accusation, what a choice of words. You expressed your
ideas about how it was proper to attribute something and that I should .
But bottom line you said, what I did wasn't against the rules and you were
not going to get involved.
The last part of the above was a good decision.

Ah,, Bob,  I got it. I saw the slam was against Stan. And I saw you take
something that I do and will continue to do and use it as something to try
and start something between Stan and me. If Stan ever said any thing to me
about why I don't always attribute stuff, he would get the same answer I
gave you. "I have my reasons."
I have suggested that people that get bent out of shape over the issue, 
People that don't seem to have any problem finding out who wrote it BTW,  
turn me in to the Boortz webmaster or the Boortz's legal team.
