And yet Ann busted you when she said that in fact Dan had not been "courteous" to me at all. You back peddled and said "Oh uh, maybe courteous wasn't the right choice of words" But you just can't let go of the idea of me being a low person no matter what Danny Boy said or did, eh? Is it part of your TM induced glow in your brain that leads you to believe that attacking a TM basher is actually a courteous thing and that's why you are doing it now? Ahh, TMSP leads to such WONDERFUL behavior. I think you might be barking up the wrong, but usual, tree here MJ. First, not for one moment did Dan's discourse with you ever seem courteous and he had a good time playing with most of us here, sometimes smiling on the outside but not necessarily on the inside. But the point is, is that Share is not responding the way she is because of TM or the fact that TM induces some sort of "glow". Share is Share, MJ. She doesn't like to get into kerfuffles with others unless she feels that enough others are ready to back her up. She is careful to court favor, in her innocuous way, with the guys here and fair enough. I don't blame her but this leads to her unwillingness to see beyond a "friendly" pat on the back or superficial endorsement of what she writes for what it is - internet trolling or camouflaged ill will. She defends bawee and she is defending Dan and that is her MO; she wants to be liked by all, and is unwilling to look past the facade that some present here at FFL. Again, I can understand this - it is not the way I operate but it probably leads to less confrontation than I get in my life for being straight up. This is not a condemnation of Share, it is simply my take on things YMMV.
