Damn, can't sleep tonght.
Nate, I scan this board as well as a few others that address my different hobbies/interests. I don't take anything on the internet too seriously. It's like yelling at the television.. It's supposed to be entertainment.
I do get info about who/what/when/where pertaining to games each month, and have learned a lot of minutae about guns, maintaining them, gear, etc.
Seems to be two constants about internet forums; -Each one I've been to has a eclectic mix of posters, with SOME opinion about SOMETHING, And I've found that whatever we commit to writing, -no matter how benign our intent is.. It will be mis-interpeted by someone reading it. It's impossible to see someone's face or hear the inflection in his voice in print.
I just enjoy the whole internet thing, and realize it's limitations, FWIW.
Goodnight. (It's like 4;30 am)
