So, after all is said and done, congratulations, it looks like you got
me to fall for one. I take back everything I said. You still won't
say who you are.
You may or may not be capable at what you do. You're still a jerk.
People aren't stupid or bad just because they disagree with you or
because they are in sales.
You may or may not be financially successful at what you do but deep
down inside you are a miserable person - people who are happy don't
treat others the way you do just because they have a different opinion.
That's also obviously why you're never around on any of the real
newsgroups that deal with specific products - they wouldn't put up with
you for a minute.
It's impossible to bury the hatchet with someone who won't stop picking
the weapon up and chopping and I find it hard to believe that anyone
would employ you to do anything that requires taking direction. You
haven't got the bandwidth.
Over and out.
