What's all this I hear about Inertia ?

[Will Truitt]

Hi David:

 

I would have to agree with David Andersen.  I have followed the thread, and
I was surprised to read that you felt others were being arrogant and
condescending towards you.  They were disagreeing with some of your ideas,
and putting forth their reasons why they felt your conclusions were in
error.  But I did not detect any personal bias in that.  

 

This is a forum where ideas are shared and debated.  That almost guarantees
that someone is going to disagree with you.  But it is not personal.  It's
fun!

 

I've posted a  few ideas on this forum and had some of them shot down.  Not
because of any animus towards me, but because my ideas  were incompletely
developed.  Fair enough - I learned something new I didn't know before, so
I'm still the winner at the end of the day.   I'm all for the better idea,
whether it's mine or someone else's.  

 

I'm here to learn, and I try to leave my ego at the door.  Be humble and
respectful to others and they will be the same towards you.  Your presence
on the forum can then be a long and enjoyable one.

 

I say welcome.  Relax and enjoy the give and take.   Throw it back in.  Move
the dialog forward.  Share your ideas and risk exposing your ignorance
occasionally - otherwise you'll hold onto it forever.  And you can also
teach us in the process.

 

Respectfully, 

 

Will Truitt

 

P. S.  Merde, David?  You are full of merde?  Not of the ordinary, indeed!

After being almost instantaneously treated to some scolding,

sarcasm, condescention, and arrogance because of my previous

post, I will try again.

 

Really? I think you're trippin', dude, really I do, with all respect. Please
snip and show me some arrogance and scolding etcetera.

 

I'd like to get on the same page, and I will always humbly apologize if I am
found to be full of merde. Please show me who disrespected you by quoting
them.

 

Thanks,

David Andersen
