Sorry for all the guff you took on-line over your helping me with this
issue, it really did fix the problem and is sincerely appreciated.

No guff taken! People who live in glass houses should know not to throw
rocks!

Thanks for the feedback!

Oh come, that is not a serious question.

????????

Okay, if you want it spelt out.

Teethless mama made a point, which regardless of what the OP had said, was
valid. Your response was curt and to my eyes, petulant. TM's response was to
explain in greater detail, I think he felt you didn't understand what he was
saying. To which you made the same response. And so it went on, throgh
numerous iterations, with you responding with the same silly response rather
than a reasoned argument. TM then made an unwise statement, but your
response was out of line (IMO).

And ... I have seen you make the same sort of comment on other postings many
times.

Well, you're entitled to your opinion/interpretation but I completely
disagree with it.

We'll just leave it at that.

 

[T. Valko]

We'll just leave it at that.

Well, maybe just one important point:

responding with ... a reasoned argument.

The last time I tried that with greenteeth all I got for my efforts was to
be called a "whinning baby".

And another important point, which is what that exchange was all about:
greenteeth's suggested correction to my formula will also fail if......

The point being: almost every formula will fail, if..... At what point does
dealing with improbable/impossible "if's" become inefficient overkill?

I'm outta here!

 

[Bob Phillips]

We'll just leave it that ... except when I want to make another point.

Calling him greenteeth is hardly grown-up is it?

Does being called a whining baby by some other unenlightened poster warrant
that silly level of response?

And finally, you make the response that could have been so effectively made
against TM's comments originally.

No I am out of here.
