BERYL might have made a good point – or not, it’s hard to tell. But BERYL should know that BERYL failed to make anyone in this thread “defensive,” because the only one impressed with BERYL’s arguments was BERYL. The rest of us were amazed at BERYL’s total lack of comprehension, maybe, but defensive, no. BERYL should further keep in mind that posting to elicit reactions from others is considered trolling on this Board, which leads to people getting banned. BERYL should also understand that sharing a screen name among more than one individual is also frowned upon. So if BERYL is copping to either of those things, BERYL may want to reconsider. And BERYL should definitely quit talking about BERYL in the third person, unless BERYL is the Queen of England. Seriously dude: Do you think we’re sitting here at our computers thinking, “Gosh, that BERYL’s really made me reconsider my posting style and how I interact with others!”? Because – if I may be so bold as to speak for the group – we’re not. All we’ve learned from this thread is that you are a none-too-bright, only occasionally coherent poser, and that, unfortunately, is what we’re taking away from this. Now, if that blunt opinion makes you lump me with some snot you met 20 years ago in a galaxy far far away, my apologies, but my opinion stands. I thank you for your service then; I wish you’d given me some reason to respect you now. ---

BERYL should also understand that **sharing a screen name** among more than one individual is also frowned upon. So if BERYL is copping to either of those things, BERYL may want to reconsider. “Untruthful” makes it a pleasant trifecta. Please see below. > [@](#): > > _By Beryl\_Mooncalf_ > I’m just a dumb old 5’ 15 3/4" 265 pound country boy. > > Beryl is an apparition. He, Santa, the Easter Bunny, and the Tit fairy, are all cut from the same vaporcloth. So there’s a little wiggle room for **Beryl** , did **Beryl** mean his _electron avatar_ is 5’15 3/4" tall? 265 pounds of electrons? My God, **Beryl** , _that’s a lotta 'lectrons!_ I too honor **Beryl** ’s fleshparts for their service in Vietnam. I hope **Beryl** still has a scrap of bearing there within his electrons or fleshy hide and can make some kind of change for the better. (Then again, I still believe in the Tit Fairy.) ---

Jodi, the peson I was referring to was not you. no way. I could really care less about your opinion, I was merely trying to point out what I saw as an area that could use a little more thought. But then, what do I know about area. Enderw24 > [@](#): > > You, your apparition, and your real life honest to goodness self. They’re all idiots. I don’t mean that as an insult. I truly believe that. Now, If I had any doubts about you and your opinion, at least you have cleared them up here. In a few minutes I will turn off the power on this computer and guess what, Beryl, the apprition will cease to exist, or at least, He will exist in some cyber spot he never speaks of. I think there is definitely a different reality here than the one exist in. Toto, we’re not in kansas anymore.(And I douby we ever will be.) ---

So, you’re sharing the username with others, admit to deliberately pushing people’s buttons for the hell of it, and repeatedly break our rules with regards to copyright violations. In addition, it looks like you are posing as a lawyer, and it is doubtful whether you actually _are_ one. I think that tells me enough. It’s been a pleasure, I’m sure.
