A predictable response. Thank you for that patronizing judgment. I've read enough of your posts to be wary of ingenuineness. Rather than engaging in meaningful dialogue regarding my suggestion, you've validated my assessment.

That reply was a power play, as was the post that occasioned it. You guys stopped actually conversing at least two posts ago.

At this point, I could join in the game by saying "Fascinating!"

...but I don't think I will. =]

Yet somehow, you're compelled to comment.

Yes indeed. The truth is certainly powerful. From my point of view, we never "conversed" at all. Stormhands asked a supposed rhetorical question and I gave a sincere answer to which he took offense and also revealed the ingenuine nature of his intentions to ksen. What I pointed out was that this is typical behavior for him as it is for others on this forum.

Stormhands, you get your wish...point made, subject dropped.
