Oh, hell, I
was being an asshole to him in at least every-other post.
My "cherry-picking" comment was global, BTW, not directed at anyone in particular. It's probably a phenomenon that happens at all forums.
I've asked myself in this last hour, "What made you [meaning myself] want to go toe-to-toe with Simon like that?" At first, nothing came to me, but in re-reading the thread, I think I know what happened: I wasn't too fond of seeing a two-week old thread bumped with the same old "Since you guys didn't heckle KJA in Dayton, then all OHers suck" argument. For whatever reason, that got me going. I'm feeling much better, though.
And, yes, playing Grammar Police isn't very cool (or the best way to get chicks). So, for the record, I'll say that I was wrong on that point. Simon, I've edited all of that nonsense out; it was over-the-top and I apologize.
And, as long as I'm at it, I'll add an apology to Kevin J. Anderson. Kevin, I'm sor- ...
ha! got you! No way
that's ever going to happen. I go to bed each night, Kevvie, hoping that you contract a very large (but non-fatal), itchy, and socially unacceptable skin rash.
