Why wouldn't I assume that "some people" refers to me when you devoted the previous paragraph of 162 to me?

A simple apology would have been much better than your feeble attempt in 167 to deflect criticism from yourself. Another sign of fleshly pride.

I will be away from the computer for at least the next 10 hours, carry on without me.

Likewise..., time for me to go and get some business done.

One more before I go...

Well very simply because if I were only talking privately to you, I would be e-mailing you. I'm not doing that. I'm posting on a public forum. That means that there are many who are here who fall into the category of "some people".

And as far as to why the post was directed to you -- it's simply because that's the way a person follows a series of comments on Free Republic. One has to address a "response post" to a previous post -- if anyone is to follow a line of reasoning or a series of comments. There are other people reading now (who may be those "some people"). I've seen them already on Free Republic. And many could read this months later when there are no more comments being added.

It makes sense to me, anyway...

Well, I for one don't wear shoes that I think don't fit.
