Wasn't it obvious to you that this was used in the reply to the
post from "Blacklight"? See my reply to him:

Depends on what you consider a "newbie", I suppose.
If you consider anyone who has been on the net
for <10 years as a "newbie" so be it.:->

Passing thought: If I wanted to lie on the net, I
would gain more by pretending to be a "newbie".:-)

Minor error. That was in my post to "Blacklight". All of this
would be obvious to you, and others, if you didn't snip posts.

Your choice, of course. Many do, for security reasons.

Well, I have a few encyclopedias, and I need not look to check
if your picture is there. :-)

Incidentally, not interested into getting into an arguement over
which one of us is more pessimistic than the other.:-)

For an opinion on optimism/pessimism see

Bad news on optimism

OPINION: Susan Maushart | September 29, 2007

Quote:
"As the Krispy Kreme theory of human personality suggests,
pessimists make us nervous – for the same reasons and in the same
way that small children and flash photography do. Because they
are pitiless truth-tellers." [more at]

Want a good example of what can happen to "optimists" culled
from current news? See:

24 songs cost single mother $250,000

Correspondents in Chicago | October 06, 2007

IN the first US trial to challenge the illegal downloading of
music on the internet, a single mother from Minnesota has been
ordered to pay $US220,000 ($248,040) for sharing 24 songs online.

You worry about such trivia? You wouldn't be
obsessive/compulsive by any chance? If so, you might
want to consider using this tagline.:-)

It was just a little stab. Too many spaces between "From:" and
"blacklight" and no space between "blacklight" and "<", so
apparently
you didn't copy-and-paste it or did and mangled it later.
