Cut and dry is dead and dull. Hope everybody here on P3D can change
your mind. If not I understand and respect your feelings on this matter.
Okay now we have two letter campaigns. One to Wrebbit and one to Dr.T.
Everybody flood Georges email box with we don't want cut and dry.
That's the problem with the internet, which is ironic, that it's a
fantastic tool for communicating with everyone in the world and yet
it's so easy to argue. Hey it's easy to argue with the person next to
us. Do we really have to argue with the person across the world to?
Of course this is one of the drawbacks of (for the meantime) of
communicating without being able to see the other person that we are
addressing. No subtle body language in 3d or even 2d. Especially when
dealing with people we haven't met before and have a much harder time
to gauge their mannerisms and personality. That's the reason we have
smileys and not only for the fun and novelty aspect. In one of my recent
posts I kidded around with Dr.T and it was very easy to interpret it
as being to the point of being nasty, which was not my intention. That's
why I made sure I put alot of winking smiling faces. Such as ;;;;x10000)
among other clues. I sure hope you were not referring to any of my posts
because if they were taken as such, I publicly apoligise for it.
Gabriel signing off for the night and hoping for a brighter (day) tomorrow.
