I did not pose my comment regarding you in a attacking sense at all. I am
not offended by you and don't see you as a person who is a problem here, but
rather as one who often contributes.
But I don't understand you. When you respond to the various personages of
Y-Not (you know what they are as well as I do, if not better) it seems forced
to me. You can choose to do what you will with Grant, Awake, etcetera, but
when you act as though they are individually different people I don't
understand because, if you are the Doc of the old days (which you are saying
you are), you know better.
To say i don't understand you is not to say I don't like you or feel you are
a negative influence. It means just and only what it says....I don't get it.
