I won't be this ruthless, but let me say directly but diplomatically, we don't find the same things great.

I don't dislike it because of what he said, but how he's pitching it. I think its a very important thing for people to read and selling it like that is equivelent (in my mind) to telling kids drugs are bad. They are going to try it, not see what you're talking about, and give up on everything you said.

Now I'll grant you that this is a person speaking to other people already invested in the activity (in this case reading) so it should be judged differently.

I know we're prone to battles Marizpan, so let me say that I'm only writing this much to say "I didn't like it, but i'm not trying to be a **** this time."

If you like the forum, man, I'm happy for you.

edit: Also, that sounds like his father was reading him the child friendly version of the Odyssey. Are children allowed to be children in the eastern bloc? You will read this epic poem and you will love it!!!!

Edit edit: And while I don't think Mr. Dave is the culprit, this forum can drive me nuts in that threads that took a lot of time and labor lose out to threads that are so half-witted and ridiuclous that I have to take breaks to ease my fury off.
