Maybe harry's ancestors also suffered from NPD, and were ashamed of where
they came from

Harry,
So when you grandfather landed on the shores of the US he immediately gave
up his Eastern European heritage. How strange. Most don't. I know my
grandparents didn't.

Harry,
Did you miss my point again? Try reading for content.

I am curious, why did you make your Russian heritage, including tales
about how the immigration officer changed your grandfathers last name
when he came to the US if it is not important to you?

It isn't important to me. It's just an anecdote my grandfather told me.
It
wasn't important to him, either. He was glad to be here and considered
himself an American, not a hyphenated American.

Uh, Harry, you're repeating yourself.

Smithers asked, "What would you like to know?"

You presented a list of information you wanted from him. He said he'd reply by email. He did.

You're a lying coward, Smithers.
In several recent postings here, "Smithers" volunteered to answer some
questions:
To wit:

Lord Reginald Smithers wrote:

What would you like to know?

To which I responded:

Your real name
The email account your ISP assigned you
The metro area in which you live
Your age
What you do for a living (where you work is no one's business)
Your wife's name
The brand, style and model of boat you have, and other boats you have
owned
Where you boat
How you identified yourself here prior to the endless series of "made-up"
names you've been using

And a personal family history, with interesting anecdotal information,
of at least 500 words.

Oh, verifiable information, of course. We'll see how the comparison
matches up.

I did not ask for his street address, the name of his employer, his
telephone number,
et cetera.


Smithers responded:

Harry,
I will reply via email.

Here's the email Smithers sent:

"Harry,

It is nice to see you have a long list of questions.

Before I answer your questions, please provide me with an answer to the
following questions.

1. What is your home address.
2. What is your home telephone.
3. Why did you find it necessary to make up details concerning your
wife's education and where you obtained your degree from?
4. Were your parents too strict when you were growing up? Did you feel
loved as a child?

I look forward to your answer.

Joe"


I actually won a minor bet over Smithers' response. Another poster
emailed me that Smithers sounded "sincere," and I bet him that all that
would be forthcoming was more Smithersh*t. I won. The bet: a brand-new,
$5 or less fishing lure.

And, as I have stated previously, Smithers is a coward. Still.

Sorry John, but Smithers made an offer that he is backing out of. Both of
you are now hanging by a thread based on some wording in the original posts
that can be easily misunderstood.

May I remind you of my book offer? I made a mistake on the wording of the
offer yet I ended up living up to my original promise. If I recall you
called me on the carpet for my original reluctance to accept a PO address.
A fine line indeed yet I honored my original offer.

You can't have it both ways John.

Harry,
Your NPD is showing. When did you become arbitrator of what personal
information is to be shared in rec.boats? You asked question, I decided I
wouldn't answer your questions until you answered mine.

We have seen what you do with personal information. Ask JimH or JohnH what
you have done with their personal information.

Harry, you are so obsessed with me, it is fun watching you squirm trying to
find out anything you can.

JimH,
As someone who has been on the receiving end of Harry abusing personal
information, I would think you would encourage others to follow the advice
of internet security experts.

What offer did I make? Do you or anyone think I would answer any and all
questions Harry asked? The fact that I said "What do you want to know" does
not mean I would answer the question. I said I would reply. I did reply
via email. It does not mean I would reply the way Harry wanted.

The purpose of my replying via email, was to show people that Harry does not
keep any personal information private. Anyone who gives Harry ANY PERSONAL
info is a fool.

Harry very quickly showed what he does with personal info.

You of all people should know that.

Smithers is a cowardly, lying, weaseling assho*le, *exactly* as I have
been stating here for a long, long time, and his latest rationalization
isn't working, except, perhaps, on his fellow weasels.

Harry, you were made to look the fool and you are unhappy about it.

Stop crying it is sad to watch.

Don't want it both ways. You said what you said, he said what he said. Show me where he said he
would *answer* any questions. Do that, and I'll agree with you.

Do you *really* think Smithers just 'made a mistake' in his wording?

Easily cleared up, Harry. Show us where Smithers said he would *answer* your questions or provide
you any information.

You took his bait, and you're fighting like a blue fish on a wire leader.

Harry, maybe we should add 'trolling' to the list of bad behaviors? But, you have to tell me what
your definition of 'snarkiness' is.
