Maybe that's the ticket, Pug.  Set up a filter to filter out "humor"
so everyone will KNOW that there are NO humourous postings and feel
free to take insult at anything said.  

Nah, guess it wouldn't be necessary. We pretty well assume that
insults are meant anyway unless smiley faces are posted all over.

Remember when people used to do this? [ :) included for the humor
impared ]


:>Since there are those who have been around forever, 

Allright now! Quit insulting my advanced age.  Just because I was
around to help name dirt.

:>The good news is that this is not always the case and we do remember to

Pretty good advice from a person whose hero is named MEATLOAF.




Now to everyone who read this did you _really_ think that I was
being insulting to Pug?  There were no smiley faces to guide you
[well there was one] but you really didn't need them, did you?

If you have a choice of whether or not to be offended by a post [you
mostly do, you know ] you also have a choice of being honorable or
of taking offense.  Not that taking offense is dishonorable but
choosing not to take offense is honorable.

The choice is always yours.


Larkin O'Kane     I will not purposly offend anyone in a public forum:
CSM, AoA, AQR     If this post offends you, please tell me privately.
