>Agreed. I only follow the first few posts in conversations, and because of this I don't what people post / what their points of view are - so I go by what is written. As I was reminded in a Business Communications class, be careful how you write something, as it may be taken to the letter of it.

Alex;

Something I was taught in Catholic School was to express what you mean – who, what, when, how and why. These fragmented posts on the Internet leave much to be desired as far as understanding what is meant. Add to that the problem of communications on the Internet! :)

In college I learned that anything you write should be self-explanatory. That is not always possible. In fact on the Internet you will not be able to express yourself with just a few lines.

Imagine someone dropping into the forum for the first time and that person is not aware of personalities who are posting. That can lead to some interesting interpretations I am sure!

As I recall from a cartoon character from long ago, “Humans are the craziest people”! As long as you can keep a sense of humor about life you should enjoy the ride. :)
