You continually say that I'm "foaming at the mouth," but you're the one who
just can't, absolutely can't, let it drop. Seems like that's pretty
indictative of personality problems.

Ummm, Moron - the postings Thom was referring to were those repetitive,
boring, content-free ones lacking it life, wit, humour or any trace of
originality whereby you just called Jon a HOMO for post after boring
post after boring post after boring post after ......
ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz

Heh.. Look... Ganz had been at it for months. I fiqured it was time he was
subjected to the same bland repetative regieme. I admit... and stated as
much that it was like playing "Whack the Gopher" at a fair.... only
difference being the gopher was frothing more each time it popped up. I
had no problem with it since I was not employed at the time and had
sufficent time on my hands to persue this objective. I posted sailing
related content as well as some replies to off topic threads during that
time. Look Peter... when I am not interested in following a prolonged
disscussion between Doug and Dave of investments and social security ... I
just select and delete the thread.... or ignore their posts.

Thom could have employed a killfile as could everyone else. I suggested it
to anyone that had a concern. You have, as explained... several options at
your disposal... a kill file or the choice of ignoring the post and the
option of reply. I even assured that I would include a word in every reply
to Jon that could have been entered in a kill file message "if content
contains" for those of which cared to follow my other posts while avoiding
my trouncing of Ganz.

My primary objection is that this involved nobody but Ganz and myself.
Thom decided to involve himself of his own free will. Not only did he take
the liberty and attitude that his opinion was of merit to me or not... he
attacked me in the process. Now he seems surprised that I've taken this in
a negative manner????

Don't take it as an attempt to be your conscience. Take it as a
critique on style.

Critique on style ? I admitted no "style" was involved in those posts....
on many occasions. I consider advice but I question direction. I do not
consider mutual respect to be asking too much. Had I attacked Thom as Ganz
had on several occassions ... then I could have understood his actions.
Thom seems to have the mistaken belief that he is the adjudicator of
disputes and enforcer of posting content.
As it is... I have made it clear to Thom that his manner of appraoch has
clarified his opinion of me. I owe him no consideration nor compliance.
Respect is earned and age does not give carte blanche to such
considerations.

Think about it... if Thom had approached me as you have here... I would
have been much more receptive to his concerns....
