>...this crap has to stop. Why not let's you and me talk about things outside of the forum. That way atleast this forum can do what it is supposed to be here for - help people. e-mail me and we can discuss our differences.
>Thanks for bring some perspective to the board, Jake.
>Thanks.AJ, I think most of the people who come here regularly agree with Jake on this. The site has become terribly cluttered, almost to the point of uselessness. You try here to imply that Jim is the instigator, and that it could all be resolved if he would just exchange e-mails with you. (Not that this would apparently make Chimp and Lucifer act maturely). He has already let you know he does not wish to correspond that way, but you continue to pester for it. Would you please just disagree with him, and me, and Ral, and whomever, when you disagree, and leave it at that? I know that sometimes Jim rises to the bait, but you are the one chumming the waters (leaving out Lucifer and Chimp for the present). Disagreement is fine, and the occasional jab can be just in fun (even with a grain of serious intent), but there are times when there are strings of several messages in a row of your messages only on the Recent Posts page, all of them saying nothing more than 'don't even listen to Jim or Paul B.'
If you want to say that none of us can prove we are doctors over the Internet, fine, just say it. If you want to say stretching has its limitations or doesn't work for some, fine, just say so. If you want to sat 'see s doctor,' do so. But this personalized pestering just clutters the site and makes it unappealing to lurkers (yes, that's just my assumption, I cannot poll the lurkers).
Please try leaving out the persoanl pestering. If you want to dialogue with Jim, how about going to his site? And leave this more public forum open for more public matters.
Peace.
