"I see that you were here for the War of 10-15-2005..."

I have eaten asbestos like other people eat donuts. Trust me, I was flame-proof before you got out of diapers, but that is all beside the point. See post #53 above. Many Freepers seem to believe that their length of membership on FreeRepublic increases their credibility over other Freepers with less longevity. Older horses don't run faster. I would ask OO, that's Osage Orange, not double zeroes, to focus on the message. Do not look at credentials of the messinger as a substitute for thinking about the message. Trust your judgment as opposed to looking to others to validate what you think or believe.

I remind you of the Russian proverb in the first article of the series.

Maybe, maybe not.

Smarter man than you and I once said..."Trust, but verify". It's good advice.

Trust your judgment as opposed to looking to others to validate what you think or believe.

You might have much to offer me in the way of advice. But your whole reply post was basically a "judgment" of me...based on a wink and a grin post. You've no idea...based on one post what I believe, what I value, or think. And I don't know much of you either....You could be a great and upstanding person. I dunno....

All I was pointing out...was your Flame War claims..didn't jive with your personal "born on date".

If my quick comment offended you....Please accept my apology.

FRegards,
