Re: update kees failing to install

I think I should say - not that Bear needs me to defend him - that he
is very active here and helps a lot of people, the information he
provides is accurate and (sharply) on point and he is tenacious in
pursuing solutions. He may not have the nicest online persona, but
he's a far cry from the worst, too.

Since this your first visit here I think I should warn you that the
key to success with newsgroups and other online fora is to remember
that no matter what it looks like, it's simply not about you.

I'm pretty sure Bear didn't sit down and tell himself - "Oh Boy! Just
what I've been waiting for all these years...a chance to personally
and intentionally insult, abuse and denigrate the hell out of Congoes
Girl! Whoopee! And, even if he did, it's his problem and there's
nothing she or I or anyone else can do about it from here, anyway.

It's just the way things are. Personally, I blame public education and
the absence of compulsory military service, but that's just me.

And Girl needs to remember that, too. It simply wasn't about her. She
needs to get her head around that or she's going to spend a lot of
time writing whiney little notes. Now, she was perfectly correct to
call Bear out over his lack of explanation and I commend her for doing
so...if you're going to tell people what to do you owe it to them to
tell them why.

This is my first visit to this discussion group. I hope more members are like
Ron and not Mr. Bear. Maybe he was just having a bad day. :-)

Thanks for the explanation, Ron.
