Having a chuckle yet not at your expense.

    I don't appreciate your rude comments that came from your incorrect assumption. Next time please let those passionate feelings of anger subside before you post so as to not lower yourself. I enjoy your point of view regardless of me agreeing with you or not. Things would be quite bland without opposing viewpoints. I am always open to learning from someone I don't agree with.

    Have a enjoyable day sir.
    I think you mistake me.

    But let me point out that if you had wanted to make a clear and unequivocal statement as you just have, you had every opportunity to do so.

    Smilies, for all their usefulness are not words, nor explanations. Rather they often embody the same sort of ambiguity that has characterized much of this conversation.

    I am wordy sometimes...but it is because I do not care to leave my meaning open to "interpretation".

    For that reason alone it is hard for me to fathom someone making a post such as you did and not having some inkling that it could be misinterpreted. So easily avoided, so casually thrown aside. No one can make your comments clear for you. You have to take that responsibility yourself.

    I was not angry and I will not cast aspersions. But I do post to more than a few forums and I've seen snark from many angles.

    I accept and appreciate your clarification..."a day late and a dollar short" though it be. And regret any angst my comments may have caused.

    How about:

    The Kilt - Historical

    The Kilt - Traditional

    The Kilt - Modern


    It doesn't need explanation, we know what the words mean... Let the bright people of X Marks work it out for themselves.
    Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

    I have saved myself what appears to be loads of anguish by never reading the descriptors.
