It is not noticed that you post much in net.singles, Melanie, so what's your problem? And since I have posted a summary of the replies I received, and stated that I had gained some understanding by way of these replies, why do you stick to imposing strictures on me that you have decided I must want to impose on others, which you built up only from the fact that I asked a question--why don't you, in this hypothetical situation you've envisioned of me saying farewell to net.singles, act on your own principles and allow me the freedom you say is everyone else's? Well, since I didn't touch any nerves, my apology doesn't mean anything: how can I apologize for something that didn't happen?
