Wow, I haven't read this group in ages although I AM the one who wrote
the charter for it and whose name is on the copyright.  I had no idea
this little flame war was going on or that I had been referenced in
it.

There are two Ron's in the dfw.* groups, I was first, and after -Ron
made a nice appearance years ago, he graciously added the "dash" to
help identity us.

As for the dig at me, I won't bite the flame.  Dana's wife and I were
long time friends before they met, who decided to try taking it a step
further, and it was a mistake for various reasons.

There are folks who would love to stir up the old aggressions Dana and
I once had, many years back.   That hatchet is well buried, we have
both matured and moved on.

Yes, there was a dog.  Maggie, best darned dog I ever had.  Someone
visiting let it out the back door and having only had big dogs in my
life, my fence wasn't set up to hold something as tiny as Maggie.  I
felt terrible about it, but life goes on.

I hope this helps to set the record straight.   I take no sides on
whatever argument you and Dana once had.   It struck me at the time,
(without knowing all of the details of why it was going on) as Junior
High Schoolish immaturity, and every time it re-appears, It still
strikes me the same way, just as it did when Dana and I once got close
to that point after he first appeared in these groups.

And that immaturity was reflected in both of us, not just him.  It was
pretty much no different that what George Carlin refers to between
Bush and Saddam as "Bigger Dick Diplomacy"  or something like that.

Carlin makes you laugh, and laughter is good.   I suggest everyone
take a deep breath, go by some Carlin CD's and have a few good laughs
and move on.   There is too much  going on in the world, both
wonderful and ugly, to waste time on these old and tiresome flames.

Hope this cleared some things up.

Ron
CC'd to Dana out of respect.
