I read a lot of very long books when I was a kid, and I read fast, and long reads don't bother me. My job on the mainland was helping people read writers like Chaucer, Milton, Spenser, Joyce, Shakespeare --writers not known for brevity. Short and to the point is not my deal and it's not even my goal.

Holy golly gee KathyH,
you sure make a lot of accusations for someone that self-proclaims such a vast knowledge of facts. Your first posted on this thread,

I wasn't going to respond to this topic, but you've got this so wrong. Did it occur to you that some posters are not siding with Tom but rather practicing the "ignore the bait" advice given by our moderator? I didn't so much resist the bait but more wasn't interested in the topic other than seeing how people reacted to it.
Ever since you weren’t going to respond to this topic you have just about written a novel. Typical for you with your infinite wisdom on every thread here on Punaweb. You just couldn’t resist it could you, people having a conversation and it didn’t revolve around you and your vast knowledge of truths. Have you not ever posted you .02 cents worth on any thread?
Don’t call me out lady, some of us can be very formidable.
I could post Mauka’s IP and e-mail, but what for? If Rob wants to see if the IP matches it is up to him to ask not for you to assume and make accusations.

Tom K thank you for the good wishes you are most surely one of the good guys.

My posts are as long as it takes to say what I want to say. They aren't some sort of dick-measuring contest, but that's how you react. It doesn't seem to occur to you that writing out a long post can be a product of thinking long and hard about stuff. You can only read it as a cry to be the center of attention. That's unfortunate that your interpretation of why a person writes is limited to seeing ego trips wherever you look.
If you can find where I state that I have infinite wisdom, I would love to see it. Oh yes, and the place I talk about my vast knowledge of truths. Don't forget to show me where I get upset that people are talking without having it revolve around me. Do you get upset when it doesn't revolve around you, so you imagine I feel that way? I don't.
I post a lot because I like to think, and Punaweb makes me think. Not a lot of mental stimulation in my everyday Hawai'i life, not like in Berkeley where I had no end of people to exchange ideas with. Pardon me for treating a discussion forum as if it's an invitation to all to join in the discussion.
You seem incapable of putting aside your delusional ideas about what motivates me. When you posted about Barbara, I immediately sat down and wrote you best wishes and a sincere person to person bit of empathy. You then completely ignored that and trashed me, then pointedly thanked TomK for his good wishes. That says a lot about you, Tom, that you couldn't let go of the animosity and see that I was sincere and that to me the well-being of a loved one is so much more important than internet bickering.
