The library quote is exact. It is an exact copy-and-paste from a post by
you. It isn't taken out of context. The attribution is to you and not
the
team. The team comes in because, though you often say you don't speak for
the team, in this quote you specifically did speak for the team.

It involves my personal value judgements within a specific context that you
then sickly apply to be that of a team I have no involvement with and never
have. Me != library team. =)

And since when are you the expert on what I say or what I mean? At what
point in my life am I not allowed to speak off the cuff, but instead need
some professional team watching semantics in case someone decides that the
"speaking for myself only" bit doesn't apply because they don't want it to?
=)

This kind of dishonest behavior would seem to certainly discourage
communication.

The sad thing is that you're still out looking for a fight rather than
just
to help folks on the newsgroup. You're the only Microsoft employee I have
ever seen on any newsgroup who walks around with a chip on their shoulder.

Pot kettle black? =)

You are the only person in ten years of dealing with the newsgroups who's
stooped to that level. You can keep talking out of both sides of your mouth
on this if that makes you happy, but so long as you keep up *my*
non-professional in-my-spare-time goofing-around words as your citation of
the professional opinions of people, you're never going to have a moral
highground. It's just sleazy and dishonest and always will be. =)

*shrug* Really, I bring it up for your own good. Do you really think that
move fosters any level of open communication? Clearly I've run across
a--holes before and will again, but only you have elevated your issues to
the point of compromising relationships that I build in an attempt to help
people.

You can justify it in your head however you want, but you'll never have a
moral highground here. (I don't claim to have one, I'm just bumbling along
trying to help people.) It's sleazy and dishonest, and I will continue to
bring it up because at some point I think you'll get past whatever internal
rage you have here and be able to move on as a better person. Again, I have
nothing against you and I don't know you. Your actions to me simply speak
really loudly here about your character. It's interesting because on the
other hand you try to help people. And I see a number of references you
make to knowledge sets I helped build/provide. *shrug*

My whole time in the newsgroups is centered around helping people. I
specifically must care about this because it gets in the way of helping
people as I define it. I realize you don't care now, but like the Whos in
Whoville, I expect that someday your heart may grow a size. =)

Happy holidays,
-Zach
