ubiq- I think I have mentioned this in the past, that when a conversation I am having turns into 10% exchange of ideas and 90% arguing about what the other person was trying to say, I usually just bow out. The more I contribute the further it strays from value.
Based on that:
1. I was assuming that not responding would be most productive
2. I am not sure how to clarify anything I am trying to say because my clarifications just bring more confusion
Having said that, you have asked me several times about the gasping comment so I will try to clarify in the next post.
