Share, he wasn't talking to you personally I don't think. Richard is like a broken record with these sayings of his - stock comments that seldom apply to what the topic at hand is and are patently immaterial and irrelevant. Although I realize you warned him about me and stated here that you would be happy to read 300 comments of his per week, take it from me - just be grateful that he got the attention he desired apparently (either from FFL or maybe from Rita too), after his stint of 200/week, and is currently exercising some degree of self-restraint, hard as that may be.

Sometimes it's because I don't think I know enough about them to make a useful contribution to the discussion. And sometimes I don't because I've seen in the past that to do so does not have a good result. FFL seems to be a rough and tumble place and I don't think that is going to change, no matter how much anyone admonishes. On Friday, May 23, 2014 3:26 PM, "'Richard J. Williams' punditster@...

It's sort of like being with a group of people at a dance party and trying to have fun with strangers. Several of the group don't want to join in the conversation, they just stand back by the wall and watch or stare. A few of the people do all the dancing, but refuse to dance with some of the others, so they just ignore them. There's always at least one guy who wants to trip one of the dancers. The question is, if you're not going to dance, why did you come to the dance party? --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
