Yes, that "select people" will attribute everything to me.
So on every list you're on, there are always "select people"? Are they the same people? Because the first time I ever met you was on this list. So I'm thinking the common denominator may be you.
Because I wasn't on those lists. Nor were most posters here.
Someone posted that he posts timebombs in programs and they go off if he doesn't get paid (and sends in the code to stop the timebomb). That was attributed to myself, quite widespread, even though I didn't say it.
No idea what you're talking about.
And when someone's server got hacked, several people told the FBI I did it. I basically didn't sleep for several nights in fear of being raided and having all my equipment taken, given the circumstances involved. Especially given the fact that my wife earns a chunk of her living teaching on-line.
Okay, once again, no idea what you're talking about. That sounds terrible.
It's the "use Bryan by default" -- even if subconscience, that I can_not_ tolerate to start. It has cost me dearly in the past, because people do _exactly_ what you're doing.
But.... *sigh* don't you understand that for most of us things like you mention above NEVER happen. So what's the common denominator again?
