I strongly disagree with the above. They are about you. They
describe, and I feel quite accurately, the depth, width and breadth of
you, your thinking and your abilities.


Well, I disagree somewhat. My posts simply state my thoughts and
observations on certain subjects. They do not "describe,....., the
depth, width and breadth of you, your
thinking and your abilities."

There's more to me than what I post on Usenet. In fact, I try to post
as little about myself here as possible.

OTOH, they *do* say something about me, their writer. They don't say
everything, but they do say something. So you do have a point - they
*are* about me to some extent.

I ask you, "If not, then why would you not structure your words
differently?"


I structure my words as best I can to convey the meanings intended.
That does not mean my postings are flawless!

NOTE: This message makes NO statement as to your words worth. It only
points out the error in your statement.


Good point. Thanks

Anyone that enjoys CW and supports keeping the requirement is okay in my
book.
