If Mike had wanted to axe TD he'd be gone already.
No ma'am, that's not history. I counseled td to stop, and he followed my advice. He was probing a very sore spot for Waters, with no intention, I could tell, of scoring a few good points and movoing on (the thread started out very funny actually), and I could see him vaporizing any time if he didn't stop. Fortunately, he did what I suggested, but it was a nail biter for a minute.

SU is right. I stayed my hand. But not because I took pity on DDD. But rather because I took pity on SU. Why should I smite DDD when SU is so much more smiteable? No justice there.

BTW, one of the great pleasures of this site is watching people take DDD seriously and then going a few rounds with him. At leading people on DDD has serious game.
Triplet is as I said previously: the old muppet up in the balcony. Funny in a quaint sort of way, but irrelevant.
