Dave, please, please, let us keep things simple. Stop trying to cause
disharmorny in a political matter like this. The issue has nothing to
do with me and you, it is on a subject matter which is cleary define.
If you have nothing to say on the subject, better do something else
that take your fancy. I have no interest what assumption you have of
me. As you said, i don't know you and you don't know me, so why not we
accept each other base on simple principles. It is a simple request,
refer to me with my first name. Whether you know me out side the
confine space of your G-post is completely irrelevant.
My Kaftan or Sumbuya never harm you, or did they? I respect you and i
hope you stop getting excited. I may have little friends in your
coveted G-Post, but i careless about that Dave. Address the issue and
lets discuss. My Kaftan, Subumya, waranba or Daba kurto is none of
your business....
I would have thought an experience G-Post member like you would have
grown out the petty attitude inherent in some folks out here. But how
wrong i was to think like that.
