Thanks for your analysis of my style. I will be more aware of that when I post to you in the future. What I do is pretty much type what I am thinking in response to what I read and then a question comes out of it. I don't sit down and draw up what I want to write. I don't check it over for errors or to refine anything. I haven't seen anyone here blaming you for anything. I have seen where some, including myself, don't understand friendly relations without confrontation once trust is built up. But, to each his own. I, like anyone else, get reactive. But I won't apologize for it because I think it is healthy versus holding it in and developing a depressive bout. Also, because in the family, one thing that was prominent was that any personal thoughts, actions, etc that were not kosher with the family were dealt with, sometimes extremely. So when you read my posts, you know how I am thinking and my questions are because I don't understand where you are coming from. My style may mellow with a bit more time. It is not intention to try to hurt anyone.
