i only just noticed the thread..how can i be upset...
dont the saying go..as long as they..got your name right..etc[its all good]

we on occasion cause upset..[sorry the ruddism]..
i..occasionally cause upset..but also receive upsets..as its karma

a friend dares to tell us
things that upset..much of the upset..that upsets us
[in other]..are upset's..is because its doubled in ourselves

that we love in others we love within ourselves
that..we hate in others we hate in*..our selves

but here again..
im trying to un-rationalize the rationale

..yet far from unreasonable

its fair enough..
im flattered chis even thunk it worth..discussion

thank god for this open format..
it would be..great..if we all could reply our accusers..openly

[but keep it..on the thread..*where you feel..the offense occurs]
make anycomplaints..part of the article/topic

ps i would love to be able to
give points/credit/recognition
to posts i like..

[like a thumbs up..
that says ditto from [oug]

anyhow cheers all
seal the topic..or leave it open..to openly complain

free speech..means we are free to speak
you only..miss it once its gone
long may we hear/here

on..second thought..dont seal
cause chriss deserves right of reply too

only true friends point out our errors
my biggest error..is i dont talk to anyone..

out side of two kids..who delight in asking grandad why/why why

i dont know why
but give it my best shot

trusting that at least..a reply..
may lead them to a place..where they know..and can then explain it to me.

[preferably in writing
cause on top of everything..im a bad listener
because as your talking..im seeing the words..vision of it..in my mind]

My veto on several who comment on the OLO sites is simply to pass over their comment to the next item. I have seldom been able to deduce anything of value from those on my bypass list.

Sometimes I suggest that the author of a comment needs to read some article(s) on the subject.

I simply scroll past comments I don't or can't interpret. Likewise to subjects that do not interest me.

From memory, I did have a proposed thread rejected and have only had occasion to complain once. I am happy with the actions of the moderators.

Generally speaking, the manners of posters is better than on many other forums. As merely a poster I could not support any move by other posters to ban someone, that action is up to the moderators.

Chris, if you don't like something just ignore it.

OUG,

What a trooper you are!

Anyhooo...just taken receipt of a Folio edition of Blaise Pascal's "Pensees", so will bury my head in that for a while.

I think I've said enough here for now.....

bless you..pure-OHH
we live in amazing times
with even more amusing people
we truthfully are..a funny species

able to envision..yet other things..qually as important..
and equally impotent...to change a single thing..but our own minds

ahhhmen

again
bless your kind words
[and that goes for all concerned
but..if it is to help anything..the truth..pleases..never displeases
