Subject: Re: Short question: the letter n From: Erik Naggum <erik@naggum.no> Date: 2000/04/27 Newsgroups: comp.lang.lisp Message-ID: <3165815909755071@naggum.no> * "Scott L. Burson" <SBurson@my-dejanews.com> | You have neither right nor call to address me in such a | condescending manner, and I do not appreciate it. My post was | entirely polite and respectful. sorry, but if you found that _condescending_, I had no part in it. | I've seen you get in donnybrooks with any number of other people. | Since I never saw how they started, I reserved judgment. Now I see. yes, you do. this started when you dramatically overreacted and didn't "get" a light-hearted and slightly sarcastic response. I hope you are willing to judge your own reaction, as well, because the need and willingness to judge people is part of the problem. in real life, I would have responsed "geez, dude, lighten _up_". has it occurred to you (or anyone else) that _I_ don't appreciate you judge-happy uptight freaks? why do _you_ have the right to bug and annoy me with your unnatural uptightness under cover of being polite and respectful? answer: you don't. if you are so polite and respectful, now is the time to prove it. #:Erik
