Lynn, looks like you already gave him the best answer, so if he can't live with that, it's not worth the stress to continue. We (selfishly) prefer that you not get burned out helping those who wish not to be helped, we need you around to work with the rest of us 😉

Thanks, now you got me sucked in. I agree with the others, he or she is not worth your or my time. I did spend the time to let the OP know that they were inappropriate though.

You mean I have been hitting my head against a wall all this time? 😉

Actually, the wall usually gives way first, just too hard headed I guess. 😛

You may have been cheating. Next time pick a wall that is more solid.

I thought this one had seen the light - what with all that Karmic Curse put on you and all. I thought he had a close connection since he could caramelize you 😉

Just found out something about forumdog, he isn't even a lurker. Joined today and copt such a 'tude on his first post. 😛

Know what, I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see him here again.

ForumDog and his curses are long gone. Took flight with the rest of the pack - they are somewhere in Minnesota now.
