"You seemed to indicate that the timing of another poster's response was important (post 423)..."

Or maybe you just misunderstood what I was saying. Trust me, I'm not interested in what you and your wife do, how much you enjoy it, where you went to dinner or when you'll reply.

"Many posters exchange light pleasantries of this type over the course of a thread; maybe you're not used to it."

If you think that's 'light pleasantries', I'd hate to see what you consider graphic.

Yes, but *I* am. It's common courtesy when delaying a reply to mention why; and most people can relate to talk birthday dinners with a spouse.

Maybe you should read some of Laz's posts...

Cheers!

(Laz, sorry to drag you into this, just a courtesy ping since your name was mentioned.)
