Well, Rob..

..how do I say this nicely...?


You ain't thinkin' with clarity, a-tall, Rob.


It sure COULD be awkward for David, but wouldn't need-ta be.  'Cause I'm
one-a the few posters that has HAD previous experience to PROVE that
by-gones can (and I stress the word CAN) be left by-gones.

When I actually WUZ banned for 6 months, I asked David a couple times if the
ban could be lifted early...  Once He said "no" and the other "yes" (but I
got busy on other "stuff", and didn't end up posting agin here for about the
6 months anyhoo).

Now I'm sure I could-a just signed on with one-a my other email accounts and
continued posting during the ban, but I didn't...  I just joined other
Computer Communities fer a time.

And You've mebbe seen my postings have changed a fer piece in the past 6
months or so.. from what they had been prior to being banned... Or maybe You
just didn't bother to notice, Rob...


'N even more, I'm nearly certain I've posted here that I was banned by Joe
Pluta and Rob Dixon from a small forum that I MYSELF established...  (Inside
joke, as there is a legitimate debate over whether I was banned or I jes
left...;-) Now do Ya see me and Joe having the kind-a VITRIOLIC exchanges
that You and Joe REGULARLY have, Rob...?!?!?

Once agin.. not a-tall.


So, no..

..given past experience I doubt that it would be awkward for David
a-tall..............  (And not sure why there's a tacit assumption that I
even WOULD be banned, btw...)




So I'd appreciate if You and Glenn would jes quit beatin'round the bush...

...And just say You don't like my views of some (or many) things and want to
hold a personal grudge against me because of that......  And for THAT
reason, primarily, some-a Y'all would prefer I had as little to do with this
Community as possible.  (And I appreciate that Your two posts reflects an
opinion shared by a larger number, 'course, and SOMEwhat appreciate that You
2 voiced Yer concerns.)


Yer entitled to that opinion, 'course.. and I'm a big boy (at 5' 8" and
around 135 pounds drippin' wet...;-).......  Hit don' matter none-ta me that
this is (or certainly appears to be) the case...  Sorry, but can only TRY-ta
please EVERYbody ALL thuh time, but cain't.. or I would...!!!
