Is it really necessary for Robert to blast

You really don't understand? Okay. I'll explain. If you like or
respect or enjoy reading someone on this newsgroup (note all the 'or's'
. . . you can pick 1 of the 3), then you tend to give them the benefit
of the doubt. You cut 'em some slack. You take their words at their best.

However, if you think they're a lying fool, without honor or integrity,
not to mention a bloated braggart and a piss poor writer, you do not.

See? That's why RJM and Stan and Hope don't get slapped shitless on a
regular basis. And you do.

So if I acted like a puffed up braggart using the worst kind of
profanity to "help" guide Heather towards an answer, you'd find that
more palatable? You're a strange lady, Donna. Really strange.
