     Then you must accept the opinions from those that you feel are wrong
or misinformed if YOU refuse to correct their lack of knowledge regarding
your reasons. People will not automatically know or be inclined to wade
through the BS here to track down prior messages here or elseehere to try
to find out what you refuse to say. You should be appreciative of the fact
that people ask you so that they can form an informed opinion.

 MV> So more since your mind seems to be set already.

     Yup... The same attitude that you continue to show others. If they don't
appear to be agreeing with you from the onset of a discussion. Or ask you to
explain yourself you accuse them of having their mind already made up and
dismiss whatever they may have to say.

     People react to how you treat them. If they see you make statements and
take actions and then refuse to discuss the matter you can blame noone but
youself for the resultant opinions that they form about you.
