Craven, you might save yourself a good deal of time and energy by not continuing the subject. In that you took me to task for using idiot, jerk and plank, and then turned right around and compared me unfavorably to a skunk, after having used the tendentious language i pointed out, i have no further interest in reading anything you write. I've not read what you've written since then--so you might not want to expend any further energy on this.
C.I., that is very courteous of you, thank you. Please accept my apologies for unkind things i have written.
I don't think you are being reasonable, but what the heck, you aren't reading this.
