Um... something is gonna get undone here... OBQuiet, just step away, NOW! LL was not being mean to you, you are just way too sensitive sometimes. Before you respond to that, just remember that if you decide to blow up again you will just proove my point. I don't mean anything offensive, though I'm sure that's what it sounds like. I'm merely suggesting that perhaps you need to simply learn that most of the time people aren't attacking you just because they are quite adamently disagreeing with you. You throw around the word "punk" alot (often totally misusing the word), but really, getting so easily offended and taking personal all the comments you have been lately is in fact punk behavior. You also seem to place the act of being all defensive and disagreeable on the opponent. LL makes statements like "I never saw a blue tint", not "there IS no blue tint and you are insane to see it". I'M the one who says the latter :D. I'm not trying to "start something". I'm not trying to patronize you with this. I'm merely making a suggestion that perhaps you might be happier if you didn't read everything in such a manner as to read into any disagreement (or suggestion regarding your motives) is an attack.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
