You have been told time and again that you should validate your pages at http://validator.w3.org/ and fix the problems. BTW, for anyone who thinks about bring this up, I truly do NOT expect a different outcome from John. I _do_ need to have my OCD meds adjusted, though. -- Favorite yoga position: Rosh hashavasana, the high holy pose Mac and geek T-shirts & gifts <http://designsbymike.net/shop/mac.cgi> Prius shirts/bumper stickers <http://designsbymike.net/shop/prius.cgi>

Note, further, that John did NOT crosspost to c.i.w.a.h. That crosspost was added by someone responding to him. His original post was only in comp.sys.mac.system. At best, he's simply trying to drive traffic to his site, but really, his past behavior indicates that he's really mainly interested in inciting the flames in the mac newsgroups. -- Plain Bread alone for e-mail, thanks. The rest gets trashed.

Is that because the purpose of you repeatedly posting questions and repeatedly not validating your pages and correcting the errors in them is to get people to view your religious propoganda? >> BTW, for anyone who thinks about bring this up, I truly do NOT expect a >> different outcome from John.

Does that sum it up? So, I can do this with you, too, right? I don't need to justify my annoyance, all I need is to have a reason inside my own head, than I can speak ill of you and use foul language toward you. Is that the theory? You can blame the other person all you want for your own choices of behavior, but the only person being fooled is you. (And I don't mean that personally, Mike, only as a generalization.) Bill B |
