I wasn't thinking about you when I wrote the previous post.
That isn't the point.
 
OK, I have a question. I just did a search....and Google...but couldn't find the answer.

Does anyone know who coined the phrase 'Bungied Wings of Death'?

That's it. Simple. (I did discover who coined 'Flacid Wings of Flailing' in my search though. LOL)

For the rest I have no opinion having never used one.

Sorry, but what's the point?

I don't see any personal attack in my post.

I think that he took it as if I was talking about him and I wasn't.

The guys who I'm talking about can be picked easily.

For example, you posted your arguments but in my opinion, you didn't took it to the personal level, I disagree with some of your opinions but I understand your position and accept it
As long as you don't take it personal, it's ok with me.

Ain't freedom great? we can disagree and no one is going to Scuba jail for it.
 
Mandy...

ALL of us are biased. It's why we post. :D Being biased does not in itself disprove a claim or theory. Passion for a concept is often mistaken as someone "shoving" their beliefs down someone else's throat. In actuality, it means that right or wrong, they feel strongly about their position. I try not to assign motives over the internet. It only leads to hurt feelings and stops all communications. This is true for BOTH sides of the fence.
 
Hmmm
NetDoc the voice of reason, I like the way you say things NetDoc.

2 posts and you put everything in perspective!

How you do that?
 
It's easy Mandy...

I learned to avoid making the same mistakes over and over and over... :D

Actually the ROakster and I go way back on this very debate. That and the fallacy of horizontal off-gassing! :D

It wasn't a personal attack that he was complaining about, it was the Generic accusation that offended him (and he lumped himself into the generic group)
