No, I used "plank" to mean "plank." (Note: It's "plank" in the NIV, and "beam" in the KJV.)
Back when we had that exchange, mysteryman had commented that you frequently called others "stupid," and thought you ought to remember that you "barely graduated" from high school the next time you "attack someone with a better education then you." You didn't seem to understand his point, so I told you: "
I think his point is that perhaps you should remove the plank out of your own eye."
In doing so, I was referring to the plank in your eye (i.e., your own lack of education). I was not referring to the speck/mote, which would be in the other poster's eyes (that which you are complaining about ... i.e., other's stupidity).
Are you following this yet?

Here's the exchange:

Yet you denigrate others and call them stupid.
If you were so smart,you would have done better in high school and maybe gone on to college.
I think you need to remember that you "barely graduated" the next time you attack someone with a better education then you.
I did graduate from college with a major in Accounting - in the top 25 percent of my graduating class. I worked in management except for the first 3.5 years I worked as a traveling auditor for Florsheim Shoe Company. They promoted me to Audit Manager, and from then on, I've worked in management for a handful of companies, and also did consulting work.
I think his point is that perhaps you should remove the plank out of your own eye.
Matthew 7:3 (NIV):
Quote:Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?
Matthew 7:3 (KJV):
Quote:And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

There's that plank again.
