I wasn't trying to start a flame war with you. Nor I with you. ======================= What Flaming is: Flaming is when a person goes into a chat room, forum, discussion or email and deliberately causes offense to someone by personal attacks and insults, not just their opinions but everything, their personality, their lifestyle, their family and friends even if they have never met the person or know anything about them. What Flaming isn't: Someone placing their views, opinions on a discussion even if they disagree with another's point of view. A simple way to put it is if the disagreement is about the person views on the specific topic and not an attack on the person in general, it is not classified as flaming _http://articles.syl.com/quickfactsinternetflaming.html_ (http://articles.syl.com/quickfactsinternetflaming.html) Sometimes, serious...disagreements online are described casually as "flame wars" even when the major participants are making useful and informative points and, largely, not flaming....Partly, terming such a discussion a "flame war" seems to be due to faulty or distorted memory of the discussion itself:.... _http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_war_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_war) ================================================== I acknowledge that my responses are at times quite lengthy. My intent is to be thorough in a single post. The single phrase or single sentence response seems inadequate. For example, your simple question, out of the blue, could be construed as "flamebait." The simple answer to your question is no, I haven't had a response from Pallone. I do intend to follow up with his office(s), but that is low on my priority list of things to do. I'm still shamefully basking in schadenfreude since the last election. ========Original Message======== Subj: [AsburyPark] Re: Schlockmeister Columns Date: 12/7/2006 4:52:28 P.M.

I only brought it up because he didn't come to the Springwood Avenue meeting and he was invited to it, so it made me think of that. I wasn't trying to start a flame war with you.
