Your interpretation of the Trans-Fi website is accurate. Sorry if I misled you.

Dear Lew, Your ''context'' is not my ''context''. My was expressed

in my statement:'' Raul uses the occasion to point out who

according to him is stupid and ignorant''. He obviously feels

entitled to insult co- members based on his imagined authority.

You obviously missed my ,uh, ''context'' and even ''refused to

take it seriously''. I can't remember that you ever used such

qualifications for any of our members and I am member since

2007.

@nandric im getting the impression hes jealous of the attention this post is getting because its not his. He wants to be the center of attention. Im angry that many who were enjoying this post have bolted because of these two antagonizers
