My statement about Strike was based SOLELY on what I CITED him
in his post.  He was clearly fed up with Lee's antics based on
my reading of what he wrote.  Strike would have correct me if
that wasn't the case!

To do WHAT?

That was because you used "we" WITHOUT knowing what anybody ELSE
thinks about THAT subject but yourself.

All this shows is how STUPID you are to think that you're clever
by TWISTING things completely out of context -- equating your case
(no knowledge by you of what Strike thought) and my case (of
KNOWING what Strike thought based on his words I CITED), and
how STUPID you think the readers on this list are.

Isn't it about time for you to brag again that some poor souls (in
rec.scuba no less) called you a "gentleman"?   ;-)
