Thankyou for the welcome Stormy ;) I also recount a period last year when Jasper was so eager to contribute to the dicusswriting forum that he quite literally, as rokkitnite mentions above, annihilated the community spirit by initiating every last topic in the head page. I remember he called me bald at this time (which I;m not, btw). I also recount numerous occasions when I got a gobful from a few but let me say this: a great many comments (malicious or not) provided me with the opportunity to look at my lit and language errors more critically and as a result I feel that I've improved. Not 100% I might add...but I have come away in the past with some good ass kicks and some good food for thought...despite whether the ass kicks were intended to educate me or not. There's gotta be a moral to this tale. And it's not that I'm a twat or that you shouldn't call someone bald if you've never met them and it's not that jasper is going to educate ANYONE judging by the fact that experience has proven him to be incomprehensible most of the time. But! He does have something to offer and we all have something to offer him. Let us all offer each other a bit of ourselves and learn new words!
