    Default edhewitt your conscience should be clear, you went beyond an impatient person's limit

    I don't understand the slashes, brackets, soap, razors, strops....I found this site while looking for info on Esperanto, and why it was a dismal failure.
    Thanks

    Use soap on your strop to increase draw, but beware too much draw and your razor may slash the strop, if this happens draw some brackets around the slash and you should be good speak Esperanto.

    It'd be the first as in you are welcome.

    Yeah, I know, the army re-union thing can go two ways, either I get VERY pissed or I feel silly, talk to no one and slink off home early. I intend on wearing my vintage brass artillery cuffinks. Now, what was the OP saying he'd misplaced? Witty banter?

    The two don't HAVE to be mutually exclusive, and from your track record, in your case probably aren't.

    So I get very pissed, feel silly, talk to no one and slink off early? Sounds like a plan...
