Ooops, you forgot to erase everybody's memory....

Whenever I see you being intentionally circumspect, I figure it must be for one of two reasons:

1) Most likely: you figured out that revealing private information on a public forum was boneheaded.

2) Slightly less likely: you're trying to hide facts that would show how wrong you are.

So, I refer to your sig:

If there is any doubt as to wording or intent in what I have written, presume the most unlikely explanation.

I'm going to go with

3) You know what i'm being circumspect about, you know the right answer, and figure that might make me uncomfortable, and that sounds like fun to you. Or you think theres something that will deflate what i'm trying to say, and you think thats fun too.

Usually when i'm being circumspect, its because i'm trying to protect someone. Usually thats me. Sometimes its my kid. Sometimes its a friend.

Act accordingly.

Most of the time I'm unable to detect that anyone here bothers to read old posts.
