    Please be assured I have no desire to have your e-mail address. I'm a bit of a techno idiot. I did not realize that an e-mail would have exposed that information. I don't blame you for wanting to withhold it.

    I wasn't aware you were "cleaning the thread up." As I said, I'm a techno idiot. But that wasn't what concerned me. If you read my last response in that thread, I actually said that an editor has the right to, well, "edit." I even noted that the thread did contain some unwarranted nastiness . Rather, what upset me was your reply that, as I read it, suggested I had initiated personal attacks, when clearly I hadn't, nor have I in any thread. A review of my posts, I think, would confirm that.

    I do agree, however, that "...it is a good thing [i] don't participate...anymore." But I will miss many of the good folks I've gotten to know on MLPF.

    No need to wish me goodbye or good travels.

    Sorry, I shan't reply with email, as I do not wish you to have my email address.

    I never suggested that you attacked anyone. There were attacks made by others in that thread--I removed the thread to clean it up, but will most likely just let it die.

    I'm not sure where you think that I'm accusing you of anything--where you are getting that from I certainly have no idea.

    I do take exception to you spouting off about the thread being removed, when I answered the reason why in the 4th post or so. Did you even bother to read it, or just decide to "pile-on" at the end?

    Maybe it's a good thing you won't participate here anymore. Goodbye, and good travels.

    Cormac McCarthy is the guy who wrote No Country for Old Men, which was made into a movie. Title comes from the poem, Sailing to Byzantium, by W.B. Yeats. McCarthy also wrote All the Pretty Horses, also made into a movie, but the movie was a dog of a pretty horse. I think another one of his novels, Blood Meridian, is being adapted to a screen play. And he just won the Pulitzer for his latest novel, The Road, which I have not read. If I were to recommend one of his books as an intro to his novels and his vision, I suppose it would be Blood Meridian. If you decide to read it, hang on tight 'cos it's a hell of a wild ride--savage.

    no, I haven't. I'll check it out.

    And I'm a lot of things. Writer, student, teacher, pastor, musician. Jack of all trades, master of none (wait, I'm supposed to avoid cliché in my writing).
