There is no reason to be confused about me. Only a fool would hop onto this
site occasionally and miss all that is written about <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName
w:st="on">Christ</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Church</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>.
So yes, I'm a bit aware of the craziness that goes on. What I didn't know was
that a neighbor, like myself, would not be able to post some thoughts about a
fellow business man in town without being raked over the coals about who I
know. As far as my connection to those who attend <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName
w:st="on">Christ</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Church</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>,
I'm most certain I associate with them on a daily basis. This town is small,
that Church is not. I don't live in a hole. It does appear that stepping
up with some strong positive words about Mr. Hoffman has only made the uptight
even more so. I suppose it's good people have something to talk about, even if
fictional. Again, interesting. Joe”<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Thank you for the response Joe. But once again you have not
answered my question. My intentions in asking, and just what I’m
asking and why are pretty clear, as far as I can tell. If you haven’t
noticed, it is been weeks, if not months, since I have posted something on
Vision 2020; laboring at getting you to answer what seems to be a very simple
question has been one of my primary reasons for doing so. Your refusal to
answer the question, while pretending to do so, continues to perk my
curiosity. I’m really hoping that you could do me this very small
favor before pushing off. I’m also curious about your interpretation
about how you have been treated today on V 2020. You say you have been
raked over the coals for saying something positive about Hoffman; I don’t
think this is an accurate summary of what has happened, which is helpfully
evidenced by the fact that I have been more complimentary of Hoffman than you.
Right? And again, you say that only a fool would not be aware of the
craziness that goes on here at V2020, but then you say that you were taken by
complete surprise that poking yourself into the mix and strongly vouching for
the injustice done to Christ Church caused any significant response. This seems
very odd to me.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
