Did anyone else notice that this was posted yesterday? By Richard Poe? Perhaps Richard Poe should remember?

Shouldn't the thread be locked, whacked or moved to chat? That's the normal fate of duplicate posts.

In fact, when the guy who posts a duplicate thread notices it's a dupe, the guy personally alerts the thread moderator and begs that the thread be removed.

Okay, it's not exactly the same thing but... you should keep going on the existing thread my friend. There's no reason to start a new one given that you do nothing but continue the debate you started on yesterday's.

<< Did anyone else notice that this was posted yesterday? >>

Actually it wasn't. This is a new blog entry which I wrote and posted on my blog site this morning.

It does seek to continue a discussion that began on a different thread, but it is not the same thread as yesterday's. It is a commentary on yesterday's thread, and a continuation of yesterday's discussion.

If I erred or in some way violated some FR code of conduct or etiquette, I apologize.

The large number of FReeper responses to my ongoing exchange with Raimondo suggested to me that there was some level of interest here in the discussion. Perhaps I erred in my interpretation.

My posts have always been welcome on FR in the past. If that has changed, for some reason, I will be happy to cease posting.
