Should the US Continue Off Shore Drilling Despite The Spill?

[The Troll]

What happened here is I made a comment about something that I've known to happen wondering if it might be happening in this particular situation.  It was not meant to include all college educated people or to say that some of them didn't also have common sense.  I thought your comment meant the people who do that not want to learn from those who had actual OJT in a given field but preferred instead to go with their idea because "it works on paper" and they spent however many years in college learning how to design machinery so they figure they know how to design something to fix it even though what they design may not be practical in reality.   Look back through the thread and there are those on here who have mentioned problems they might run into when certain things were going to be tried and sure enough the problems came up and I'm sure no one here has even been on an oil rig much less worked on one.  They just knew based on what they had read or "learned" about from other life experiences.   Formal education is not the only way to learn it's just the only accepted way.

  "ME" this is not an asscutting or a insult, but it for me, the Troll.  Would you please put some paragraphs in your posts.  After I read 4 or 5 lines my bifocals fog over and my eye's cross and I loose my place.  Please with with honey and spice.

The Troll   I had better stop before I

Sorry Troll.  I do know the feeling though so I completely understand.  I'll try to remember to double space.

  "Sir, I may have an attitude, but so do you.  I wish we could be friendly, but I don't think you could be friend with someone who doesn't have a college education and who isn't family."

Another gross assumption. Fact is, most of my social life is spent with people who do NOT have college educations, and few who have any training beyond high school. Most of my work colleagues are college educated.

I spend my time off with two maintenance men, a welder, a glass maker, a mechanic who owns some properties, and a contractor who builds homes and does remodeling (a former boss).

You should learn to listen better and talk less. Name calling and jumping to conclusions won't help. But then you probably don't care about that, either, as long as you get to bray.

"But what really get me is the way you wrote you post.  The vocabulary and the misspelled words and you say it normal for you.  Give me a break"

Nope. Not what I said. That spelling was satire, but not too far away from the speech patterns in the neighborhood where I grew up (of course, you won't believe that, because it does not fit your stereotype).

Reread it with an eye to the satire involved.

Maybe you'll see the point I was actually making, instead of the one you're trying to clothe me in.
