Re: Email question

You know, this is one of the reasons I stay quite.  Ask a simple,
straightforward question and BOOM you get some _______ who thinks he knows
everything that patronizes and insults the person who asks the question
assuming he knows the mind of the person posting the request.

Then, that "know it all" can't keep his mouth shut when people have said to
keep it shut!

Thinking of leaving this list....
