Why do I sense some haughtiness and arrogance in your words Bruce? You
choice of word "confirmation" is perhaps a cheap-shot at myself, an easy way
to say that I'm a confirmation that my behavior here is anti-social.  Can
you confirm the intend of your message? Hopefully I'm wrong, but you always
seem to have a hate attitude towards me and it tickles my mind.

I wrote a hundred and seventy two pages on that subject (the chaotic
situation of human communications/relations using new technologies).  It's
basically related to the emancipation of liberties and the sociological
relation between interlocutors, how they visualise their words vs. their
thoughts while writing whatever they have in mind.

But it's the language of the 'bulk' of the post that I find objectionable,
not the sentiment.

Most people here would probably agree, as do I, that the West Bros. are not
due any criticism, which was the gist of Toms post.  He was also appealing
for them to be given the time to finish WSC, which again I agree with,
although I also understand peoples impatience at slipping release dates.

It's not what he said that I object to, but how he chose to say it.  Given
the choice of supporting his case with reasonable, reasoned, logical
arguments, he chose otherwise.

Sure, it would be if the Wests were generally under threat or being
oppressed, but a vast majority of us WANT to hear about the West bros.'
progress.  The complaining parties are a very small, insignificant
minority who likely would like Warm Up! more than Grand Prix
Legends. ::)

I am trying to figure out how Tom is going to sell his service with how
course he seems to be in any situation.

Look at the bright side...
If WSC, against all odds, turns out to be vapour ware in the end, we have
all still had months
and months of exitement.
No one can take that away from us ;)

is....Well I have no idea to be honest.....

Your confirmation that my belief was, in fact, correct, Frank.

If you read something into my sentence other than what was there then you
have provided additional confirmation that my assumption, in the first
place, was correct.

How you could infer that your behaviour is antisocial, from that sentence, I
haven't the faintest idea!!!

I think he means "coarse", but I don't get it either.

Maybe its like the old Rubicks Cube, remember those?
If you give it to a simpleton, he is amused forever.
But give it to an intelligent person who solves it in a day, and it
quickly loses lts fun.
Ohh yea ;)
