Oh Dear...

I don't think Kyle knows whom Phynerk is and may have taken the last post by Phynerk "the wrong way." You see, Phynerk has raised his children, paid his taxes and done his time. He has programmed more systems than most of us and learned languages that are now only used by archaic water maintenance systems somewhere in the backwaters of our nation. He is currently learning languages so that he can make sure and keep water pressure, steam, etc...(The good Lord only knows) running smoothly for the needy masses. I believe that his reference to e-cobwebs and lunchtime plans for arachnids is directed at the inactivity in his current predicament, outside of work.

As for getting off his ass and contributing, well, I for one can tell you that the man (Phynerk) has contributed greatly to everything he has been involved with. He has voted in more elections, prayed for more troops and witnessed more politics than any other member on this forum. So I think that any statement he wishes to make is collectively understood as valid and based on more instinct, understanding and "life" than any of us can produce at this moment. I personally have grown tremendously from just knowing the gentleman and will respect his views out of sheer admiration for his character.

Please do not take this as a "scolding." I truly believe that Kyle must have thought that "Phynerk" must have been a recent high school graduate or current collegiate intellectual. I know how he HATES it when they get whinny. So all that said, if he did mean it, then oh well, that's Kyle...and he really doesn't care..and hey, that's why we love him!

peace and love (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!),
