I guess not.

You weren't actually a "NULL" by the time I wrote that. I was speaking of the "Chris Dukes" and "Chris" addresses, whether they be the same man cow or not. Sure, you threw up that annoying lmgtfy reference after he did, but we actually had a conversation. Mr. Dukes made two postings back on the 25th of March, and then he suddenly resurfaces to throw an lmgtfy in my face. (A link I suspect he just learned of from another post.) After my bit of defensive posture he drew silent again. Can you measure that kind of useless noise?? Man Cow Chris (be it the same person or not) made another useless blurb for self-gratification. He even threw in an "eat a dick" while disarming it at the same time. > You did not hint that you even *tried* to > contact him, them or whatever.
