now, I don't recommend anybody post on other forums!!!
just everybody needs to keep in mind that TEXT responses are difficult for humans to understand.
see what I mean?

Human Beings are VISUAL communicators. a message may seem outright insulting or demeaning when read by one person, and seem simply factual when read by someone else. it really depends on the mood or frame of mind an individual is in when they are reading. it's why BOOKS are such fantastic vehicles. they spark OUR imagination and emotions.
it's best on a forum to simply read responses, and not take them personally.
it's also why forums usually have the rule not to attack a member for a posted idea or statement, just address or comment on the idea itself.
now, posting insulting words, or images sets the idea right in front of everybody, and that will get members riled!

the response by BC "why would you think that" can be taken many ways, but on a text forum, it's best to just take the information and not take it personally.

I get into trouble all the time with text messages. it seems women and men have different interpretations of words...

now everybody shake hands, and lets try to be helpful and receptive to help!!!
thanks!
