I just went back through google too look at the post, Jim. The post is
probably about the same to misinterpret as the newsgroup mail style post.

But something interesting is in there.

In the post on 2004-01-06 at 20:15 PST is the particular post that got
all this started.

There is another post that is essentially the same that was posted at
02:49:03 PST, ealier in the day. That particular message *has* the
proper attributes.

Since all Kim's other posts have the proper attributes, I'd have to
guess that Kim knew pretty well that the second post would ensure some
controversy. Probably her way of making her point. Just a guess.

'S 'bout time. Now, to all who have been participating in this debate,
WHICH style of post was it that got more noticed I had added my CALLSIGN to
the list? It took you all (and actually it took only Mike because no one
else noticed) almost exactly 3 days to notice that the two posts were made
on the same day. One with (and first) and one without attributes. And, I
honestly ask: who really noticed one (attributes) or the other (no
attributes)? I'd almost bet a buck that even Jim wondered what in the world
was in that post that was different, whether the attributes were there or
not. By the way, note that the post that was made somewhere around a couple
of days ago...where I again submitted the list without attributes, note that
in *that* post, my information appears at the top of the post (the "Kim
Walker said" stuff). Is anyone watching this stuff? Really?!

The entire point had been having my callsign *in the list* as a ham radio
operator. Jim complains that to Google or whatever, it looked like he had
posted something he had not said. A) the only thing he had not said was my
callsign so who cares? B) What about someone who is casually looking at
those posts and completely disregards my submission because it *looks* like
I don't have a callsign?

At any rate, I don't think attributes are as paid attention to as everyone
thinks...UNTIL they come up like this...
