I still don’t understand why someone would disparage a thread as already posted, when a person was kind enough to spend the time to post a different source... and then spam their own ping list with: As I posted in the other tread... blah blah blah.
Why the ping?
And why the poor attitude?
I pinged you to let you know that I'm on your side.
Apparently you still don't get it.
I was not spamming by posting a considered analysis by someone who has been following the events since the licenses expired and also watched when it happened before, on a thread where some discussion of the news may take place. I do NOT double up the information in a PING to 700 People. . . they've already read it. Obviously since you were unaware of the reasons behind going to court so I sent it to you. Not spam, it was a start for any discussion that still might continue on this thread.
You seemed to think that my fulfilling my normal duties of telling list members this is a secondary thread on a topic that has a thread already running is me taking am "attitude" and a problem of "maturity" and you came off as if you were hurt that your thread was being disparaged as though you had some kind of little kid "ownership" and started throwing a tantrum. You went into full ad hominem ATTACK mode spewing insults when all all I was doing was trying to be helpful to you.
You were the one with the attitude. If you read anything more into my initial posts on this thread, my apologies. I suggest you re-read them looking for malice without your pre-conceived notions.
