Cloudy is known around here for lacking a "filter", so to speak. I'm not sure if he's always lacking a filter vs. opts to forgo the filter (e.g., is it an irresistible impulse or an impulse not resisted...). In any event, my guess is that jnk nailed Cloudy's intention, which is why Cloudy liked it:

Yea, just when you thought you knew someone?
Eh, I will spend a few minutes with him in the time out corner, and he will come around.

Verified black-hat ops should be grounds on any board. I agree.

Dr. Cloudy, I have certain, um, things that I can offer you that JNK can't. I am the obvious choice.

I thought your points were missed because of the method of delivery.

Not quite a ringing endorsement. But I will go on record that I very often find value in your posts, personally.

I would appreciate it if the ladies, such as Madalot, were always treated with utmost respect by everyone, myself. But I realize that isn't always going to happen on a public board.

And that's my statement, for the record.

At your age, I wouldn't think I would have to explain that to you.

Just want to be sure I am not misunderstanding you or your intentions? Please be succinct.

What?????? You said you wanted compliant, right? Just imagine how compliant I would be once I had a few presents sent to me.

Thanks, jnk. You have always been kind and treated me with respect, for which I am very grateful. And you're right, it's not always going to happen on a public message board.

And for the record, I don't agree with everything you said about BC's remarks, but I respect YOU, your way of saying it and your RIGHT to say it. The post was made with respect for all -- which is why I respect YOU.

I appreciate your comments and courtesy towards and on behalf of me.

You are a gentleman.

Awesomesauce, I can cuddle up on the CPaptalk couch between Robert and Cloudy and eat popcorn while watching trolls drive people crazy. There are worse ways to spend a Friday night.

Thanks, Madalot. I try, though I fail at it on a regular basis. And I'm not sure I always agree with everything I say, either.

I'm glad you're on this board. You continue to be an inspiration to many here.
