Like what? like offending people in r.s.f.c.? Maybe you don't think you are
into flame war, but labels of "cock sucking fag artist", "Lee Corso", 
"ignorance", "asshole", "pinhead" led me to believe otherwise.

Yes, your mailer is so smart that the time stamp in the message is not
the time you sent the mail, but the time your mail hopped to internet.

>I can assure you that I am not logged in a 3 a.m. 
Based on your dishonesty, why would I believe it? I would rather believe this
message header when all the hops were also time-stamped:

  Isiah/Stockton:
    =Thanx to Ed for the final piece of trash to rebuke .... Well thanx
    =Ed, I was getting tired of this argument and you gave me the means
    =to end it .. "
  Of course, you didn't stop right there.
  
  Isiah/Malone:
    =As much as I hate doing this, because I know I will now get a hundred follow-up
    =posts from Ed either calling me a quitter or prodding me into posting again
    =so he can claim I'm a liar, I think the net agrees that this particular 
    =thread has gone far enough.   .....  So, sorry Ed, flame all you want,
    =but I see no need to continue this, except through E-mail..."
  Again, you didn't end right there.
    
  Rodman/Robinson/defense:
    =No.. It just means they are tired of it.  When an argument goes on for a month,
    =and there is absolutely no new information of use being presented on either
    =side, the argument stops having any meaning and becomes a useless waste of 
    =time.... At least one side has the intelligence to finally stop and ignore you.
  And your intelligence seems to emerge when you are out of gas in an argument,
  after about a month ....
  
  Boston Bias:
    =Alright Ed, I think we have now reached our 1 month limit...  It is time this
    =thread stopped, once again.  I am bored with having to re-read old posts
    =and stuff.  Oh, don't worry, I am sure you will respond with comments about
    =me "wimping" out and all, and everything else, but I've gotten used to your
    =stupidity over the monthes.  
  But since then, there came another month of arguments ....
  
    =It is clear that my feelings on the subject were that the call was fine.  
    =You have had a good time trying to pick lines apart to try and "prove" 
    =that I said something, but I am reminding myself of the point of.."who 
    =cares"???   Ok, obviously, I did for quite a while, but I no longer do...  
    =Think what you like, you will anyway."
  Well, glad to see that after two months of flame war, you no longer do
  care my picking your lines ... How did your smartness appear/disappear all
  in a sudden?
