I know some IMs who have beaten computers recently (I realize that you later changed your comment to not include IMs and above, but that was much later in the thread). I also have checked out that thread (most of it is still in the archives for those of you who do not have access to deleted posts). Well, now I know the time frame (the day I went on vacation) and why I was unaware of it. Looks like Dann acted appropriately to me. Again, it is a matter of degree. If someone says they did something and you tell them they are full of it, guess what you are calling them and what kind of thread you are starting? And the lawyer comments were not that impressive. Gotta say Robert, not one of your better days. You were not the only person jabbing that day, but then again, it looks like you started the trend in the thread. The fact that you are still harboring a grudge over such a trivia thing doesn't say much either. I think you are taking the idea that you are right and others are wrong a little too seriously here. As a law student, you should know that things are not ever so black and white and there are always at least two sides to every story. If you cannot see the other side of it, I doubt anything I say will convince you otherwise (ps. you will need that skill to be a good lawyer; I know, my sister is a lawyer and she is not only very good at her job, but also very capable of seeing all sides of an issue). My advice: give it a rest. Take it easy. It's not that important. Honestly. And don't be so harsh on Dann. He's just trying to do his best like the rest of us. KarinsDad :)
