    Just as I thought. Double standard. Will keep it in mind.

    No double standard. I've been a moderator on this Board for over ten years. In those years, I can't remember a time I haven't publicly supported a member of the Admin Council. Let me explain my comment:
    punctilious: means a person is very particular as to his word choice and expects the same from you.
    pendant: means a person will act in a manner of a school teacher. It's hard to swallow when a person treats you like fifth grader. Think of the proverbial old maid schoolmarm aunt.
    As for William Buckley here's a link to his Firing Line interviews. Personally, he reminds me in many ways of the late Dr. M. James Hollowood of Marantha Baptist Bible College and Seminary.

    Well, maybe 6th grade. :D

    My very good friend. I was devastated by his loss. It is hard to believe he has been gone for 12 years. :(

    Uh no, it is nothing but an avoidance of admitting to poor behavior. Plain and simple.

    What I gave you was the definition of punctilious, no more no less.
