Tim, let me just clarify what I meant by the above. I have seen this phrase
"twit filter" used in a number of echoes now. I honestly don't
know for sure
what it is, but I am assuming that it is some kind of software that Windows
FidoNet users use to filter out messages from certain people, so that they
don't have see them or read them.

I work on a Macintosh computer. I do not use any such software. When I used
the phrase "ignore list", I simply meant that I will add your name to the
small list of people with whom I will not communicate here in FidoNet...and
again, this is at your request, not mine.

I have no idea what "twit filter rules" are either.

TR> Klahn, Ceppa, Sauer, et al.


Excuse me, but I parrot nobody. I am my own man, do my own research, and form
my own opinions, as I have done for many years. I don't need someone else to
tell me how to think or how to believe, or what party or individual to
support. If we follow your argument through to the end, then anytime two or
more people happen to share the same views, they are all just parroting each
other. Sounds kind of ridiculous to me.

If you knew me better, had read more of my posts, and particuarly, read some
of my articles, such as "Obama, McCain And The Bush Legacy", you would know
that, as with all politicians, I hold a mixed opinion regarding George W.
Bush. On one hand, he supported some things with which I could agree, such as
his position on embryonic stem cell research, abortion and gay and lesbian
rights. Sadly, in my view, his scale tipped way over to the other side due to
propensity for war-mongering, his snobbish, belligerent, unilateralist
attitude, and the fact that he was totally beholden to the powerful and the
elite, and did very little to alleviate the situation for the little man at
the bottom.

Don't assume that just because I hold these things against Bush that I have a
better view of Barack Obama, because I most certainly don't. Obama is a
liberal with some extremely liberal tendencies which I can't begin to stomach.

The fact that you have resorted to petty name-calling really makes me wonder
who now has the higher moral ground. I may not agree with someone, but I
certainly won't resort to calling them an "insignificant idiot". Before you
accuse me of wallowing in the pig slop, please take a hard look at yourself.

I know absolutely nothing about Sauer, and don't care to. I know very little
about Bob Klahn, other than the fact that we share a few views, and that he
may possibly be a Roman Catholic. As to Dan Ceppa, I assure you that he is
most definitely not my friend or associate in any way. Quite to the contrary,
he and others made my life miserable over a dozen years ago.

I hold no hostility towards you Tim. I am not that kind of a person.
