>Charles is a brilliant and innovative VFP developer who I have had the pleasure to speak with and deal with. He even sent me a really cool book several years ago about machine intelligence (thought I'd forgot that, Charles? Calvin has it last I recall). Charles is a humorous and nice guy who doesn't need to tell others he's nice and generous.

>As to accepting different opinions? In my experience, it's the liberals who want to shut down discussion and differing opinions. Yeah, don't believe it, but there are proofs out there. Fairness Doctrine anyone?

Not everybody's experiences are the same. I've certainly seen it on both sides. Jerks of whatever stripe will try to shout down any opposition - liberal or conservative. To paraphrase Stein; A jerk is a jerk is a jerk.

>>Charles I was trying to bring some humor to all this and I had nothing to drink yesterday. I have not been in a fight since the 7th grade. Yes, I’ve been hit on by men several times in NYC and I am very comfortable with my sexuality. I am a very nice, generous and handsome guy that finally had enough of being pushed around by red neck America. You know I wasn’t even that angry about it until I read this thread Friday night. America is supposed to be the place where different opinions are accepted but that is slowly changing. It’s the Republican way or it is the wrong way.

>>Now if I have been jumped by a couple of liberals because I was supporting the war the response I got here would have different.

>>You guys are all right. America is doing just great the way it is so let’s not change a thing but just in case I donated another $200 to Obama online. I’ll leave it here because this is going no where fast and I’ve got work to do.

>>>I am giving you the benefit of the doubt in believing you were again drunk when you wrote all of that below. Posting a lot of stuff about how handsome and successful you are and how many women find you attractive ( it is well known how much women can't resist loud-mouth egotistical drunks ) and how many guys hit on you ... I think we are actually seeing an online case-study in impotent rage. I wouldn't be surprised if Friday wasn't the first time somebody had kicked your ass just because you are so handsome and awesome and rich and successful and politically insightful. Your people skills would make that seem appropriate.
>>>
>>>Enough people here know me or know enough about me that I won't bother to address your questions about what I've accomplished etc. You, obviously, know nothing about me other than that I find twerpy, egotistical drunks distasteful.
>>>
>>>What you have accomplished is to make a unique contribution to Fox forums with your presentation of yourself. It will be memorable for a long time.

>>>>>Laughing at you is not exactly a sign of fear. Sober up. Grow up. This isn't political. You've just made a tremendous fool of yourself by behaving like a drunken adolescent. You may be a perfectly nice person in "real life" but understand that you have somehow managed to represent yourself here as a loudmouthed drunken clown. You are not feared - you are ridiculed for being a legend in your own mind.

>>>>I am not drinking tonight Charles. All that I've said since Friday has been a mistake I agree and I regret it. I got pissed off after being jumped by a couple of red necks had a few drinks, this thread title caught my eye and here we are. Obviously the outspoken crowd left here has become as old, out-dated and red neck as the KKK. No offense really.

>>>>What do you have to show for your life Charles? You must be a man of the world to tell me how to behave. Do you even have a VFP application running in production anywhere in the world? I'd bet you're living in someone's basement. At least I made a great deal of money using Visual FoxPro. There is the Republican in me Charles. Who is the real clown? Maybe me, maybe you, maybe America or maybe the Rest of the World... I don't know... Who knows...

>>>>Having said that if you ever get to Upstate NY stop in and stay a night. I assure you your impression of me will improve. I am quite the host and if you time it just right I can have some Asian girlfriends up from NYC. Swimming naked is a must.
