Time for some chill pills Chuckie. It is ok to be wrong. But it is not


ok

not to see that you are.

Time for another break from the NG Chuck like you did last year. You

are
about to explode once again.

'Tis only a NG. Relax and take a deep breath.




Chuck maybe a very leftist Liberal, which I do not really think he is.

Just
a little further left that most here. But he was not wrong. He gave an
educated guess as to the term gauze used in the British Version of

English.
Gauze here in the states, is normally a lot of layers of stuff, not a
screen. And Karen maliciously attacked him, and which just like most of

the
USA does when attacked Chuck fired back.



I'd like to claim provocation & he did "pretend" to be seeking an
answer, however I confess I attacked him just for the fun of it, it's
dead easy & he's an OT NG spamming menace:-)

& fired blanks back at me as the lying loony left always does:-)

You over estimate your firepower and underestimate Chucks.

:-) Thanks Bill & that's your estimation of my estimation, which is
clearly an in-estimate, because it's not possible given the rules of
this universe to underestimate Chuckles, unless of course you estimated
him in knots per hour:-).

Good grief. If I'm a NG menace, why the very next thing I'm likely to do would
be start attacking people


just for the fun of it



Hope you had a wonderful time. :-)



I did & thanks so much OT chuckles, I'd almost forgotten how much fun
it is, so I better start reviewing your on topic stuff more often, which
other than your blatant spam, won't be much I have to say:-)

Thanks very much "K". A picture is worth a thousand words.

BTW, ther fella who surveyed my boat (Ottawa Canada) was British which
explains the term he used.

"Gauze" is
really cryptic.


=================

Yep, I figured it out but not without translation.

In the US gauze is a first aid supply.

And once again we are culturally drawn together by a different
language...

That's what came to mind for me when he used the word Gauze. First aid on a
boat?? :o)

Is that more or less OK than never participating unless jumping into a
discussion with a schidtload of negative personal comments? Is that OK to do,
but not OK to fail to see that is all one is doing?

Naw, I'm not going to explode. As always, I will refrain from picking a fight
with you- but if you or somebody like yourself wants to start a crap fight (as
you did in this thread, there can be no denial) don't act all hurt and wounded
if your puny little salvo is returned rather amplified. I think some people
would be willing to go up against a Sherman tank with a sharp stick.

You're a conservative, Jim. You like rules.
Here they are, twixt you and I, as far as I'm
concerned: you leave me alone and I won't waste moment's time reading your
posts attacking others. I have better things to do than try to goad you into a
flame war- even if I enjoyed a flame war, you are in, shall we say, a
"different" league than persons I would care to trade barbs with?

If you insist on shifting a discussion of an obscure technical term to a
discussion of personalities, (as you tried to do in this thread), and if you
attempt to make that shift with your sewer pipe quality insulting remarks,
don't be surprised if I respond.

(knowing full well I shouldn't respond. It's the response that's the payoff for
you trolls, isn't it?)


Filter him, like I did Krause. Better for your serenity.

Thanks all. Got that one figured out.

Hi, The surveyor who inspected my boat mentioned a priority replacement

of
the "fuel tank flame gauze" in his report, but I have been unable to find
out what he was referring to. The marina where my boat is isn't familiar
with that term either.

He (Johnathon Watson for those of you who know of him) has passed away

since
doing the survey.

Thanks
