Sadly, some people attempt to forge
a tie between the terms "polite" and
"political correctness". There is no
link between them. Jim didn't treat
Kim's callsign badly; he didn't use it
at all. After all, it could be easily
argued that Kim didn't treat amateur
radio with respect in choosing her
call. A number of us believe that her
choice was tacky and tactless. (snip)


So, because Kim did something, it gave Jim the right to do something?
Isn't that a two wrongs don't make a right situation, Dave?


ROFLMAO!! Know what it sounds like to me? Sounds like Dave has an agenda.


No kidding? Do you think that putting to rest any comparitive tie
between your action and Jim's could be on my agenda. Be sure to mark
down "pointing out Kim's lack of good judgement in choosing her
callsign" as an item on my agenda.


The dialogue on this thread that has just been winding down the past couple
of days has less to do with my callsign than it did with overall practices
in newsgroups.


Your callsign is linked to the matter to which you've objected: that
someone refuses to type your callsign in a newsgroup post. Your
followup was to alter one of his posts to make it appear that he'd used
your callsign.

Yet, Dave persists in defending the topic from the angle of it having had
more to do with my callsign!


Defending the topic? I'm not defending a topic, Kim.

He's managing to achieve nothing but tripping
over his own self.


Your inability to comprehend doesn't equate to my tripping over
anything.
