Thought for today ...

Sometimes it's better to have somebody inside your tent pissing out than have him outside pissing in.

Never argue with fools

Today's thought is:
Never argue with fools.
They'll just drag you down to their level and use their experience to beat you.

Yesterday's post seems to have caused quite a stir and has even produced some results, which is nice. Security Man has adopted a more appropriate avatar and Damo found a typo in yesterday's post - so that's encouraging too.

Less encouraging is the fact that the quality of their contributions to the forum at frequencydb.com remains pretty much as before. Of course, that may be a function of ability rather than will so perhaps improvement in that area is too much to hope for.

Thanks to all those who took the time to send comments. Some were supportive, some abusive and some were clearly psychotic. Some even took the time to write long essays that illustrated nothing more than that they had completely missed the point.

Therefore, I propose to take the advice in today's "thought for the day".

Thanks also to those who offered to send me the password for the "highly sought-after database". I appreciate the gesture but it's really not necessary. I know I said I would come back to the subject of the database, and I will in due course.

Meanwhile, for those of you who have had similar difficulty getting in touch with frequencydb.com, you could try sending an email to one or more of these addresses:

I like your thoughts-for-the-day.

But don't you think you're at risk of wasting your time on opponents who simply don't play in the same league?

By the way, what is Killinascully? something like what we call a Redneck maybe?

I take your point Alex, but sometimes the fun is worth the risk.

Yup, we got us some of our own homegrown rednecks too - bejasus we do! :)
