>>>I could not disagree with you more profoundly. The whole concept of a twit filter -- something I have never used, FWIW -- is that one member has irritated another so seriously that they don't want to deal with them at all. The irritant (the twitted) has no right to demand a hearing or another chance. We are all here "at will" and no member is obligated to put up with the unwanted words of another. If such a process were put in effect it would guarantee the loss of some members.

This is (at least) the second time that you have encountered an overly depressing situation OF SOMEONE ELSE'S CHOICE. In both cases people gave you excellent advise. But you just will not take it!

At least STOP BOTHERING US with your personal turmoils of this nature. We've tried to help and been REJECTED. How do you think we feel as this goes on-and-on-and-on???? You will not stop until you have gotten the attention of the other person who (you believe) has silghted you. Why don't you pester them in THEIR e-mail and leave us out of it???? We've tried, we've failed, and WE WANT TO MOVE ON!
