The first two paragraphs in this post are all I need to know with regards yourself and facts.

Which - to stray on to the topic - is why I can't take you seriously on this or many of the other things you say.

But and this is important I'm in no way saying you shouldn't comment.
Thanks for letting me know why you have formed this opinion.

Whilst I agree that it is sensible to take things on the internet with a pinch of salt unless evidence is provided, some peoples need for constant affirmation
for irrelevancies is unreasonable.

For example, if I posted "Sky Atlantic" starts on VM tomorrow, it would be reasonable for someone to want proof.

If I said "it's currently raining here", I would expect people to simply accept it, without the need for dated photographs etc.

In that particular thread that you linked to, I was stupidly asked to provide proof of an opinion that I had formed over the years of my life experiences.

Does anyone know if this threat is a reality?
i doubt if you are acquainted with reality ...[/QUOTE]

The words "industrial action" were not specifically mentioned, but that's what I inferred from your statement.

This is now your opportunity to clarify what you were actually trying to say.

It is not mandatory for you to end each post with a rude or acerbic comment. You can make your point without resorting to this.
