Huh?  I didn't bring this up with you...
You seem to go off on tangents whenever I
bring up a topic.  You don't face the issues. Pete,
you are too difficult to follow...  you make no
sense... you argue for the sake of arguing...
Ever step back and look at the newsgroup
and evaluate the 'disagreements'?  Do you
notice that you are involved in 99% of them?
Do you wonder why?

I've long ago forgiven and understood Colin-
He posts so many pictures with credits intact,
an occasional oversight can be overlooked--he
did not do it intentionally...   I can live with that..
I hold nothing against Colin at all.  I like him.
Maybe you can learn to let things go too--
stop beating a dead horse...

Oh this makes sense... not.   This correlates
to be nice to people, if they are not nice to
you, and after reminding them,&  they are still
not nice, then inflict acts of meanness upon
them.   Obviously your motto...  but I've
been raising my children differently.   
Perhaps you were an abused child.  Reacting
to meanness with more meanness is a sign
of psychological damage.   

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Pete,
you need help.  I feel true sorrow for you.
