That was what I though was ignorant, Gary, not the language but the general
lack of good manners. What I also find amazing that Bob should jump to this
person's defence and to the wrong conclusion that I am a prude and that I
abused someone when he knows nothing about me. I may be wrong, but I don't
recall this particular individual having posted to urg before and I
certainly don't remember him/her having introduced him/herself, although I
know it is not obligatory so to do. I wonder if Bob does not feel that the
second posting, directed to me, was in any way offensive? Perhaps he would
care to comment.
