Thank you Elsie. Rather than simply criticizing you give a solution. Anyone can criticize.. it takes a bit more intellect to supply a solution. Of course he will probably not thank you for it, since giving me that info will eliminate his ability to use criticism of my typing style as a means to marginalize my speech.
Just a side note.
I, too, used to be real snippy when I first came on theses threads.
I'd been so used to yelling at the TV talking heads that I took my behavior with me when I started chatting back and forth here.
It wasn't 'til I got MY feelings hurt that I realised there was a REAL, LIVE person on the other end.
Now I hope I am doing better.
