[MD] A Confusion of Weasels

[david buchanan]

Dan said to dmb:
...And honestly Dave, you and Steve have been bordering upon that same level with your recent posts condemning each other as slow-witted weasels and idiotic morons.  ...I think you are rationalizing a reason to be rude to others. 


dmb says:
Okay, I hear you. You think I could be a lot nicer -  and you're probably right.
But just for the record, there are many things that I do not say. It might not look like I'm exercising any restraint but I definitely am. Lines of text have been deleted prior to sending, not to mention the thoughts that never make it as far as my keyboard. 
And I know what you mean about the Platt and Arlo Show. It never went anywhere. But I was always on Arlo's side and it was always obvious to me why he got angry and frustrated. I don't mean to suggest that Steve and I are parallel to them in such a totally stark way but I also think a careful examination of the archives would show that I have lots of legitimate reasons to complain about Steve's behavior and about the content of his assertions. Lots.
