Dale,

I'm going to be nice and not flame to hard for being quoted out
of context.

Pay attention Dale.

Not according to the posting I read. The article I quoted made a remark 
about the AMIGA OS (Operating System).

The OS is not hardware.

Here is the part that really upsets me Dale.

You included the part I quoted from another posting, but DIDN'T include
my comment on this statement.

You know the part I'm talking about don't you??

The part where I say that I don't have the "scribbling" problem.

Dale, without this part the next statement is nonsequitur.

So, in the future quote people in context or don't do it at all.
Be sure it's PAINFULLY obvious what an individual says and what he
quotes.

OK??
