Berona, I believe, but do not quote me, that BrinsleyS is some sort of scientist. Perheps that explains the state his brain was in last night. But does not excuse him for being so rude.

I've had nothing to do with either of them but the original person who put up the thread asked the pros and cons of a certain software, and I began to read to see what I could learn.

SHRat answered in a few words, as did others, but then this other person asked a question and next thing, I'm reading all this criticism about the way his explanation was typed!

To the one-finger typist, this would be a deterrent to contribute to the boards. I have no problem understanding what people mean and I'm no genius. Also, I was not impressed by the fact that he changed his name twice in order to trick readers. I was pleased to see that SHRat saw through him.

Janet, I have to admit that it was your comment which made me look at it and I was disgusted at his cheek. Can't have anything better to do. And, of course, I suppose HE is perfect!

It's a bit much when a person posts under one name and asks for an explanation - then comes back and posts under another name on the same thread, criticising the way in which the explanation was set out - with not enough paragraphs, no less!

Check out 'Genealogy Software' on the Tips Board. I personally found the explanation quite interesting, but apparently this poor old man had only asked for it so that he could take a swipe at the person who bothered to do the explaining.

Shame on you, old man.
