>>>>>>Peter, why must you over analyze everything? Who cares how I would have responded without the "swines" comment? You address nothing of what I said, but rather try to turn it away. I DON'T FREAKING CARE! You are now twitted.

Thank you for answering my question from message Re: Off-topic, inappropriate and harsh Thread #1282503 Message #1282947. There is no longer any doubt in my mind about which one you are.

Peter, I have stuff to do and I am not getting it done trying to get through to you. I am done. And to make sure I am done, I am twitting you for a while and walking away. I am not doing this because I am a loser - I am doing this because I am the bigger person and I don't feel the need to always get my way on an Internet message board. Do what you will with this message. Maybe you will raise a stink and demand a personalized response from the VFP Development team or a statement from MVP's because you have experience with doing that and you obviously feel some sort of sense of entitlement.

As Will Smith said in Independence Day before he launched the nuke at the alien: "PEACE!"
