you are quoting an incomplete link and attributing it to
Harv. Harv posted a link to a specific flash presentation
on this site, you however are presenting the home page of
the site as being what Harv posted. The original link is
http://www.inlibertyandfreedom.com/Flash/Think_It_Over.swf

No. I'm posting what you get in a text-only browser, and
what you get when you take a look at what the SWF link is a
part of, which I've already explained, the "target site".
You want me to explain it again maybe?

Well, I've been ignoring your rants on the subject and only started looking
because of p[osts from a couple of other peoople. But I still see little
purpose in arguing abouut the supposed "target" site of a posted link, when a
person obviously posts only the specific link that was intended to be viewed.

If you don't have flash, why would you look at a link that is obviously a
Flash site in a text-only browser? Obviously, you are not going to see what
the original poster intended you to see if you are not using a flash-enabled
site.

BTW, I hadn't loked at this originally as I knew it would
take a while to load on dial-up and I didn't have the time
then.

I have dial-up. So what?

So, you made your choice to look at a flash site on dial-up despite using a
text-only browser. That was your choice, for whatever reason you chose to
pursue a flash site with a text only browser.

I chose not to lok at the site originally because of having dial-up and not
wanting to wait for it to load through dial-up with a browser that has Flash
enabled. That was my choice. I stated my choice.

You're wandering Nann. This has little or nothing to do with
the rest of your post here.

Gee, do you suppose that might be why that paragraph was prefaced with "BTW"?
LOL

If you want to "revue" the site
in question, feel free, but lets not confuse the issues any
more than they already are m'kay?

well, the original subject line of this thread remains unchanged. I spoke to
a couple of different aspects of that original subject line - 1) what Harv's
original posted link was and 2) a response to a particular line in that
original link. Both are quite appropriate within the origins of this thread.
And I signalled a shift in direction through prefacing the paragraph with
"BTW". (I could truly diverge now with a discussion of psychological type
and thinking processes, but that truly should be a different thread.)

beyond this, I am happy to participate in civil and reasonable discussion,
but I will not participate in nor respond to invective and insults.
