Disagreement is not animosity.

If I read your posts at all, I generally scan them quickly.

I just click on the reply button.

Then this conversation serves no further purpose.

I never disagreed with that. Perhaps you have me confused with
another poster?

The borader dispute is over that question. But your dispute with
me is not.

You're still arguing something other than the point I was making
about your error, which really had nothing to do with the broader
question but rather your claim that"certificate" wqas a
misspelling, whihc it is not.

the only "insuation" I made was that your were wrong in your
claim that "certificate" was a misspelling. A bold face
statement, not an insuation.

I'm not insuatuing at all. You're was whiney complainer who
apparently misreads comments to that you can complain about
things that weren't said.

Interesting logic. In fact, I have no interest in being on
anyone's side.

I've already plonked Mixe so I don't have to read his misaimed
comments and attempts to change the subject when he doesn't like
a response. I see no reason not to do the same for your paranoid
tantrums.

*plonk*


I can't help wondering how old you are, though.

Celebrities fly airplanes, ...and they die in them.

I was looking for a music CD, found it and wondered why these guys
didn't come out with another CD, found out they all died in a plane
crash.

Lesson is, you don't put celebrities in airplanes, you put
nobodies..nobody cares about..nobodies.

Pilot error is another way of saying you got dummies flying airplanes.

It's a taxicab in the sky..

In otherwords, they need to *start* arresting 'airplane pilots' for
Murder.


Not Doctor error,
not pilot error...
Murder.

What you say has some truth to it Star, but isn't one post enough about a
sick pilot and a flying hostess. It seems like that title has been going on
for years and years.
