I've been known to show both thick and thin skin but I draw the line at
"lazyness". I've archived postings on this list for quite a while (>10 year=
s)
and gave up on that recently (that would be around 2005). I *know* a thing =
or
two about threading and quoting. In any case, in a clear cut case where the
subject says it all, context is not relevant. The subject asks a question, =
the
content provides a comment or a solution thereto. No relation to other comm=
ents.
Sort of like in an exam, you need to answer the question, not argue with th=
e
class. I think I did just that. And I don't think I'm lazy, most of the tim=
e, at
least. You have your opinions and that's good, some of us believe they live=
 in a
free world. Sometimes, however, silence is golden, as they say.
