If you want to add a crosspost, do it yourself - please do not attempt
to make it look like *I* added it.

I resent your use of "Followup-to:" to make me look like a troll.

LOL. Trust me, he doesn't care if you resent something he does. It'll
continue under the guise of friendship until you smarten up. ;p

I knew that already, but I'll do things my way - thanks anyway. )

I like the guy immensely, but I'm extremely wary of him.

Everyone should be wary of him. He uses people when he can, he lies and he
has no sense of what's right.

An example of *why* Jenn *doesn't* trust you!

I *do* care about FTR's concerns and feelings.

I recognise that he *could* be stringing me along and misleading me for
his own amusement - but I don't get those sorts of vibes about him.
We've been in contact for some years and I like his sense of humour
(which is not always at *my* expense! <g>)

FTR *may* have lied to me - but I am not aware of it.

OTOH, Peter Foldes lies all the time and the renowned MVP Robear Dyer
has lied too.

I'm not sure what you mean by this comment. If anything, it stands to
reason the remark I made is more factual than opinion; based on your
own posting history.

> I *do* care about FTR's concerns and feelings.

Sure you do.

You've lied a bit yourself, BD.

Perhaps I misunderstood, Dustin - but you seemed to be saying you *knew*
how FromTheRafters felt about something. Surely that could only have
been supposition on your part, not *the truth* as in "Trust me"!

I realise you are being cynical - but I really *do* care!

You have cited no examples, Dustin, but I'll let that pass.

I've a suspicion you may have missed reading this recent post of mine as
you did not respond.

http://al.howardknight.net/msgid.cgi...d%40bt.com%3E+

I'd changed the 'subject' line in a thread to read ........

*A public apology to Dustin Cook*

You must now decide how you wish to respond. Please pause for a little
thought before jumping straight back into an affray!

Your comment concerns me.

Again, I do not understand what you are inferring. AFAICR, the only
times I've attempted to use "Follow-up" is when posting from Google
Groups (when my posting name is BoaterDave in full). I've not explored
how to do so in SeaMonkey - although I do sometimes add another
newsgroup in my address bar before I post.

When I did do so, RonNNN chastised me for my action, so I avoid using
the facility.

I had/have no wish or desire to make you look like a troll, FTR.

You will have to explain in more detail if you want me to recognise what
you are annoyed about. Regardless, I'm sorry if I have unwittingly upset
you.
