You know it's a well known common courtesy to ping a Freeper to the post when you a talking about him.
He used to not be overly eager to have his screen name known.
Now, I avoid pinging him just to avoid bothering him. IIRC, he’s in his mid or late 70’s.
He’s disabled and needs to conserve his priorities for more important things than reading my posts about him that say the same things he’s read dozens of times from me.
