Both got & sent; all very freindly, & appropriate to the context of whatever was going on, I'm glad to say.After the recent discussion abt someone being dis-invited due misbehavior, I happened to pay attention to (I finally noticed) something said to me months ago in a thread, by the person mentioned; Wow, was it seriously & grossly tacky, w/both hostility & apparent homosexual inuendo that was completely inappropriate for the discussion. If this person were my patient in the real world, I would consider getting the individual into a psychiatry referral.
I would hope that sort of thing doesn't start coming in personal messages - tho I suspect a public forum gives more of the desired feedback these folks want - they can show off.
Anyway the personal messages sent to me so far have been as enagaging, intelligent & charming as those same folks have been in their public postings; absolutely in character & makes you glad you know them. May it always be so.
Cheers, BK
