Because she feels like it. I don't think she needs a reason beyond that.

Changing it is one thing. Changing it and making appear that Jim wrote
are two quite different things.

Jim is apparently trying to make a point about Kim's call sign, which he and many of us think borders on 'tacky'. That's his right.

It certainly is.

Kim is apparently trying to make a point about Jim. That's her right.

Not by making the material look as if it is a quote of what Jim wrote,
it isn't.

Never mind that they both remind me of the 'church lady', and I think that they and you are acting like sanctimonious twits. That's my right.

Under no circumstances could Kim remind me of the "Church Lady". As to
the sanctimonious twit reference: Is it your week to do the Walter
Matthau "Grumpy Old Men" role?

Closest date (before or after) wins. Anyone else?

Kim,

Why do you persist in changing Jim's posts and re-posting with no
indication that you're changing them? That kind of thing could further
reflect on your character.

Dave K8MN


Dave: First, phuck you and what you think "character" is all about. You are
nothing short of a self-serving, high-nosed, snobbish, educated idiot--and
nothing more; and some of those are even questionable. Second: on
character, like I care.

And, if I've made a post I'VE OBVIOUSLY CHANGED IT OR AM JUST PLAIN
REPOSTING IT. What is so hard about that? Jim refuses to put my callsign
associated with my prediction. I will add it whenever I feel (yeah, one of
those "feeling" things you know nothing about) like it.

See if you can break your contract. In "Grumpiest Old Men", you'll be
starring opposite Kim Walker.

I ain't that grumpy. In fact I feel a spell of downright warm fuzzy
friendliness coming on, and genuine concern and empathy for the opinions and
feelings of those who have lost their clues and don't know where to find
them.

Who could be grumpy in their presence?

And at the very top of the list: Jan Smithers, best known as "Bailey Quarters"
(turns 55 this year).

Mike, how in the Hell is anyone going to alter a post to make it appear like
someone else's, when the post is listed as "Sent" by whomever it is that
actually sent it? The "art" of making it look like someone else had sent it
would only be evidenced as deviant behavior IF (and I did not) I had also
changed the Header information to look like it had been sent by Jim.

That Dave Heil is so damned bored with life that he has to concoct things
from thin air is usual and status quo for him. Don't be so quick to jump on
a Dave Heil bandwagon...because those wagons don't travel far at all.

For anyone with computer sense, it is unreasonable to even consider that a
post could be issued under the guise of someone else--contrary to the
opinion that it can be done. And, when I resubmit "The Pool" list with my
callsign attributed to my prediction date, it is certainly weak, at best, to
display anger and make it seem as though I was doing *anything* else but
resubmitting a post an attributing my callsign to my prediction.

However, if you or anyone else, is so desperate to reach for the stars in
some display of dislike for me--then go for it.

Nice, Dwight. Very touchy-feely and
politically correct.



No, just civil, polite, manners, Dave. My mother wasn't thinking of
political correctness when she taught me to try to respect others, even
if
they may not deserve it. Sadly, too many people today consider polite
manners to be an unwelcomed human attribute, now described as political
correctness by those people.



I'm certain that Jim has an issue with
Kim's call. Quite a number of us have
issues with Kim's call. Even Riley
Hollingsworth has issues with Kim's
call. For you to attempt the equation
of Kim's tacky choice of vanity call
with Jim's non-vanity call is ludicrous.



Regardless, the agency that Hollingsworth works for, and that issued
the
other callsigns on Jim's list, does equate the validity of Kim's
callsign to
Jim's. Some may wish to dismiss that, but doing so perhaps says a lot
about
their own character.


Regardless of the reasoning, do you concur with altering peoples posts
to reflect your own wishes?

If Jim does not want to use Kim's callsign, he doesn't have to.I don't
have a problem with it, but some people do. Even so, if she wishes to
change the post, she should not put it in as if Jim posted it.

If I were in this situation, I would post a polite note with my
callsign, and not post it as if Jim did the posting. I know until I
looked back up at the from area on the screen, I though it was from Jim.

I dobt any of us wants our posts altered. We could eventually get like
the crazies thaat post here from tim to time.

Oh, yeah, Mike. And God forbid that you think that Jim posted my prediction
with MY callsign next to it, rather than my name!!! Oh, that would be just
awful...

Sheesh,
