BTW, yes I do use an anonymous email address, and no, I'm not trying
to hide behind it. I'm just wary about email harvesters, and really
don't want people emailing me unless I say so.

Hm.......that sounds a lot like hiding.

Heh, you are correct, I AM hiding.

Oh. My mistake. I thought you said you weren't hiding.

No mistake. You were correct, as I said.

But only for the reasons stated.

Ah.......yes........well.

Ah..... yes......um?

The only reason I remarked about it was because, being a long time
lurker here, I know that *some* find that anonymous seems to equal
troll.

True, true. On the other hand, *some* find that it equals vacuous. Others,
it appears, find it cowardly. Yet others find it suspicious. And others
still can't quite think of a reason to give a ****.

How does my wish that no one I don't know *personally* not have my
email make me vacuous? I just happen to find that broadcasting ones
email address is stupid, which as you probably know, can also fall
under the term vacuous. As for giving a ****, seems you did. Post your
phone number, and well talk, my dime.

I assure you I'm not.

You may rest assured that your assurances are given all due consideration.

Well thanks for that.

But isn't that what they all say :)

Ah! Har, har, wot?

Probably just go back to lurking now.

O.k., mind that door.

Damn, hit me in the ass.

I like that you are an equal opportunity abuser :)No matter "which
side of the fence" or just right down the middle an opinion or
statement comes from, your there with your ambiguous comments :)

You must be bored, or at least more bored than me.

I have no idea. Perhaps you should direct your question to *some*.

I just happen to find that broadcasting ones
email address is stupid, which as you probably know, can also fall
under the term vacuous.

Well, both stupid and vacuous can sometimes be applied to the same position,
act, etc., but they aren't exactly synonymous. More to the point though, if
posting a valid email address in a forum like this is stupid and/or vacuous
then we appear to be surrounded by an awful lot of people who have sufferred
and presumably continue to suffer untold aguish as a result of their
recklessness. As you've undoubtedly figured out by now, I must number
myself among them. This being the case, I would really apppreciate it if
you'd explain exactly how I've paid for my rash behavior.......I can't quite
make it out myself.

As for giving a ****, seems you did.

Things aren't always exactly what they seem.

Post your
phone number, and well talk, my dime.

Not necessary. You can reach me via email.

I assure you I'm not.

You may rest assured that your assurances are given all due consideration.

Well thanks for that.

De nada.

But isn't that what they all say :)

Not even close. There are dozens of current regular readers of and
contributors to this group who I have never had occasion to abuse, and there
have been many more in the past. Doubtless, there will also be many more in
the future. Hm........odd, that.......I wonder what makes the difference?

No matter "which
side of the fence" or just right down the middle an opinion or
statement comes from, your there with your ambiguous comments :)

Ambiguous comments? I'm not sure what you mean by that. Please elucidate.

You must be bored,

I have never suffered a minute of boredom since I discovered ROFF.

or at least more bored than me.

And yet, here you are.
