Okey dokey then...for those people who find responses/justifications
tedious just press that little "next" button above and move
on...nothing to see here.
For the rest - don't say I didn't warn you...

I don't recall asking people to refrain from discussions. It would
be a fairly useless forum if people were to do that.

Er...no I don't but thanks for your attempt at mindreading.

My consternation would have had to have been subconscious then as I
don't even recall commenting on your post. Was it the one where you
suggested that the secret might have something to do with the
notepad? Given that this was a very obvious comment to make I wasn't
that bothered by it to tell you the truth.

This is the sort of comment I would expect from an undergraduate who
has just discovered a textbook on sociology. Please say it isn't
so...

Being quite a short person I wouldn't dream of climbing up on a high
horse.
Your other comment would suggest that I should post in a way in which
you approve or I should stop contributing. That would suggest to me
that perhaps you see yourself as an overseer of some sort. Surely
not?
And finally (congratulations to those who have reached this far) can
I make a polite request that you stop using words
like "eleemosynary", "decussate", "supererogatory" "exscind"? Rather
than making you look erudite and interesting it makes you sound just
a little bit like a knobber...
In love and light
