Sounds like a Hammer pounding Into an Anvil That's your spin on it - does not address what actions you suggest *I* take. That is your current reality. That's your soft-science psychobabble spin, then. ;-) Not at all. I have decided that it is. Simple as A, B and C There are only two choices available to you. Says who? There are two. A and B. Option 1 - or Option 2. There is no C. There's always a C. Not in a two variable equation. Such as this. Do you want me to deny the truth just to permit Living in Harmony? Owned. Or Free. Wimp. Or Strong. Dit. Or Dah. (mandatory radio content hi hi) Sounds like an order from The General.. If I respond to Len in any way, you say I have taken Option 1. Therefore the only way to take Option 2 is for me to shut up. Not true. That's what it all boils down to. All your blathering psychobabble comes down to your trying to tell me to shut up without using those words. Not true. Are you hoping that someone will tell you to shut up? No. Why? Polish - or Avoid. I'm not Polish. You are polishing. Turds. Not me! That's what you're telling me to do. You could just be clear about it. But that's not your way. It cannot be simplified any further, Jim. Sure it can: the two words "shut up" Do you feel that this is your only logical option, then? Is there no other way? Owned - or Free. Speak out - or Shut Up. That's what it means. Be trolled - or not. That's what it means. How is one different from the other? The series "Kung Fu" was set in the American Southwest in the 1870s. Before radio was invented. But not before callsigns were invented! Wow! That's one five star education yer packin there, podner......yee haw! Do you think callsigns were invented for radio? Think again. Your current situation requires a different metaphor: "A man walking along discovers a turd in the middle of his path. What should he do? If he is wise, he would step around it and go along his way. But, if he should pick it up and begin polishing it, in the expectation that it would somehow gain value as a result of his effort, he would be quite foolish indeed." Agreed! He could also avoid the hazard, and point it out to others so they do not trod in it. So you're saying that the posts of Len and some others here are turds. I think you have a point there! Hope springs anew! That's why the polishing isn't going too well sometimes. So you agree! Excellent! Now let us consider..... If your description of Len's posts (the product) is accurate, what does that make the producer of said product? That pretty much sums it up, I think. -- Psychotics build castles in the air Neurotics live in them Shrinks collect the rent - ???? Where'd the rest of it go? I edited it out as being redundant. Fair enough - as long as you get the idea! Your basic message was that the way to deal with certain.....unpleasant items....that one may encounter, is to simply avoid them completely, rather than picking them up and fooling with them (which you refer to as "polishing" - an illustrative description!) This course of action is particularly appropriate if the....unpleasant items....were intentionally placed for you to find, in the hopes you would react to them in a certain way. That's really what you've been trying to tell me all along, isn't it, Leo? That's it - you have it! That course of action (avoidance) does make a lot of sense. However, it occurs to me that the nature of the...items...tells us something about the person who created them. If you encounter a watch, you would logically conclude that it was made by a watchmaker. If you encounter a loaf of bread, you would logically conclude that it was made by a baker. And if you encountered the....unpleasant items... you describe as being unpolishable, you would logically conclude that is was made by an There you go. And, from what I've read over the last week or so, you have discovered that application of this philosophy does not limit your posts very much at all! Well done. 73 de Jim, N2EY 73, Leo |
