Who appointed JimH the 'Lord & Savior' of our newsgroup? No one asked for
my vote.

You are upset that I made a suggestion that has resulted in a positive thing
for this NG?

My, my.

It just seems bizarre that one of the worst sinners has now 'found
religion'. From Christmas on, you fought with anyone you could...made a
road trip out to the west coast to tackle a heavyweight or two out there,
got soundly trounced and came back to attack half the North East. This after
you twice offered truces and broke them.
Maybe you should just lead by example for a while...see how this new
'Gentleman Jim' persona suites you.

I have. Will you follow suit?

And relax. This is a good thing I started.

Have a nice day Don. ;-)

Lighten up on ol' JimH. If this is the excuse he needs to modify his
own behavior, who cares?

It is amazing how the tone of the group can change when a handful of
people decide to modify behavior for better or for worse.

Jim's motivation may seem odd, but his efforts for 2-3 days now are
commendable. They say it takes 21 days to kick a habit, so if the more
civil tone prevails for another 16-18 there will be some chance of
permanent change.

So I can't call any names for 21 days before the urge is gone? Sounds like a
rough three weeks!

I wonder why Chuck saw my motivation as odd. It should be perfectly
clear....to have a better NG.

Now if we could only get a buy in from Don, Chuck, bb, Krause, jps, Doug
Kanter and dsk....I wonder if that is possible?

BTW: I guess I will be totally *cured* on March 24th. Perhaps I should
start using the patch to help me out until then. ;-)

I get my gum from Australia. Don't know if they have 'name-calling' patches.

The greatest way to stop the name-calling urge is to killfile those who deserve
the names!
