Skyfish, I use a firewall so MSM can't send stuff over open ports.

I use Trillian, it has icq, msn, aim and yahoo all in one and not in a cheesy interface. It just works better.

Yeah, killer posted trillian here (dl in first post). My problem with it is that it totally fucks up ongoing chats when you use file transfer.

if you really need to have several chats in one window... then, you need to re-invite all others...

And IMO the reason it's impossible to argue with pro-gun Americans on this is because it is in their culture and history, it's an issue where the atlantic divide is massive. But have fun over there
I replied again and also told him I think he is not a very reasonable guy IMO... I expect a reply from Eyrei. After all, he is a moderator...

The interested can go conclude for themselfs:

As far as I can see it

American posters seem to feel that questions about war and the like are a direct attack on their (rather young) culture and quite rightly they are responding to perceived threats/attacks.

If someone flew planes into your famous landmarks and made you feel unsafe in your own country, maybe you too would feel got at and maybe just a little defensive...

Two sides to every story.

meli:

I can understand the rage, fear, insecurity and all that.

BUT: this does NOT allow anyone to forego the normal rules of polite conversation. As seen in the MM thread, eyrei blow up and calmed down fast - that happenes to all of us. What I simply cannot accept is being attacked even i I clearly and rationally state my intent.

That said: I do feel with all Americans, GWB and his governments nonwithstanding, and I do give credit to them as far as possible. This go me a ban from lefty as I tried to let SunTzu blow odd and then calm down - lefty in essence said I should report him and that's it - a position I cna alos understand. This just illustrates how difficult sthe situation is - ad goddamn it is time they pulled themselves up by their own fucking stirrups!



Most did, btw!
