here is haw i sort of see it.....
1) TGore44 incorrectly asks to unsub
2) steve burnett kindly gave the proper instructions to unsub
3) TGore44 was made fun of for not spelling corectly
4) wklemmer1@yahoo.com then posts about "too many beeps and boops"
5) NOT REALIZING TGore44 and wklemmer were the same person, i had asked wklemmer what site they were refering to in hopes of establishing some sort of dialogue   i didn't remember ever seeing wklemmer's nor TGore44's posts on LD before this
6) then read gary's post adressing TGore44 (which was odd because i didn't remember that quote coming from TGore44) 
7) now i'm sitting here wondering if i am indeed an uncareing compusive noodler who has not totally gained control of his e-mail program
