i agreed with your answer to that question- but i didn't PRESUME your answer. i would appreciate it if you would do the same for me. but given that i have asked you probably three dozen times to NOT to post as if you know how i would reply, and you keep doing it, i am guessing that means i am going to be getting very friendly with the "report post" function. Report me until your mouse gives out. A rule has to be broken. Rules you make up yourself need not apply. That's a good thing for you, because I could have all kinds of fun making up rules to prevent you from doing the 101 things you do that I'd rather you didn't. But I don't want to be unreasonable. How about an exchange? I'll stop responding to posts in a way that implies I know what you think if you stop making comments like "I didn't make it past...", "It's not worth my time to read...", "It's by [so and so]. That's all I need to know.", "Sorry, I'm not reading anything by...", etc., etc. I'm not saying you actually have to digest material you don't want to digest, but if you decide it's not worth your time to read it, at least spare us from hearing about how it's not worth your time to read it. Quid pro quo. As for my reply to VB, it was my bold assumption that you intended the question "What protected class is being harmed in this case?" to have some actual relevance, which of course it doesn't have if your assessment of the blacklisting is the same for both protected and unprotected classes. Mea culpa. a rule has to be broken for WHAT, exactly? for you to get spanked? oh, i don't expect that. i have asked you NICELY, DOZENS OF TIMES, to stop making up answers for me. you keep doing it. your "reply to VB" was after a question that PI asked to ME. you had no business answering it for me. if i ever do anything 1/10th that rude, please, by all means, ask me to stop it, and i probably will.

I can do that. wow. this was a big day. i closed out an 18 month negotiation to buy out a partner, a 12 month battle to get royalties out of a firm that owed them to us, but was not paying, and then THIS. May 10th was very very good to me.

I understood the first person confusing me with someone, but You?? And even dj did not catch it I guess conservative Americans must all look alike to Canadians of all political parties.

You're going to give special considerations, but to only certain individuals ? Sounds like discrimination.
