and you yourself admitted two posts ago that you werent that familiar with
the thingie (highly technical term, isnt it?). so which is it? are you
familiar with it or not? when you decide let us know.

ok, first off let's clear up a few things:

i meant it be:
a. encouraging
b. positive
c. honest
d. helpful
e. a tad impatient

i dont particularly care if anyone found it:
a. insulting
b. dismissive
c. arrogant
d. cold
e. evil
f. hateful
g. bitchy


why?

a. because for each and every email you receive telling you that i'm a
hateful, evil, clueless, cold-hearted, arrogant, power-hungry, control
freak bitch, i can probably point you to a coward that's too afraid to mail
me, privately, as well and tell me something that i already know (thats
not a type-o).

b. because for each and every mail you've received i can probably counter
the other side mail-for-mail with people agreeing that you should read a
few books instead of being insulted by the mere concept.
