[sdiy] Basic tips on constructive criticism

Quoting Bob Weigel <sounddoctorin at imt.net>:

Hmmm, sounds like somebody has a bit of a narcism issue here...

Whoops, sorry Bob, I didn't post that! Surprise! Looks like you are wrong again!

Besides, I think all will agree that you are quite incorrect about who is the 
troll here.

No, Bob, that's not my thing, I've never been there. How about you, spend any 
time trolling there yourself? 

For anybody interested, a quick google of Bob's name get's some interesting 
hits, including, you guessed it, some on alt.talk.religion. Highly recommended!

Probably because you know absolutely nothing about me. I've been on this list 
for over five years to begin with, so don't talk to me about standing.

Heh heh, it sure is funny that all the fingers that Bob points all lead back to 
himself. There's control issues here as well, as *I told him* I wanted to be 
plonked and he twisted it around into his idea. Neat, just like my Ex used to 
do! I like his attitude; if you don't agree with me I won't listen to you!

OK, I'll leave the poor sap alone now.

Take care,
Doug
