Chris!!
Lighten up and get a grip. There was nothing to be insulting over in
that post.
Ben is a hell of a good guy and was being facetious in his comments.
He's been on this list a long time and those of us that know him
understand about his goofy ( as the Fish puts it) post, his English, and
his French. What he wrote was really funny, if you take the time to get
to know the guy and how he writes about stuff. I know exactly what he
was talking about. I used to live among the Eskimo's of Alaska, and I
know exactly how it feels to be the odd man out, trying to ask a
question or get a point across.And yes, I definitely agree with David
Broderick, Ben's English is definitely one hell of a lot better than my
French. Heck, so far as conveying an idea, his English may be better
than my English!!
Lighten up, will you!!
