Michael,
I read Freeman's comment completely differently. I didn't think he
disagreed with you at all. I took it to mean that from his POV,
he was commenting because he felt your statement was obvious and
therefore needn't have been made at all.
Let's all agree that words tossed about in a cavalier fashion can
inflict pain and thus, we all would be wise to
consider this before possibly hurting someone unintentionally.
I cannot imagine that Freeman's intent was to hurt anyone, personally.

However, I will gladly adhere to it.
Even though this post puts me over the limit for today.

the rule limiting daily posts seems to be invoked by members (not
scott, the room owner) when someone disgruntled obejects to the
content of a posting. yet, i didn't read freeman's criticism for
the number of my posts today, but, rather, his disagreement with
the content of my posting.
scott has discussed this. the spirit of MOPO appears to allow
members to comment to a thread. considering the magnitude of
interest in the heritage auction, several different threads
evolved. comments included that unbacked, unrestored posters get
premium prices. freeman didn't like my confirmation of this
belief. so he made a stupid, knee jerk reaction to me, personally,
in this public forum.. the Limit Rule is to avoid repetition of
the same thoughts, and addresses advertisement. I did neither.
Freeman objected to the content of my post about unrestored
posters, so he tried to shoot the messenger.
in part, i responded to his grumpy approach because 4 people wrote
to me privately asking me if i saw his disparagement. since my
posting, several other members wrote to me privately showing their
agreement that his post was improper.
