Spoken with smoke and mirrors. Thank you, Ms. Wills. I have not defended Yojsouth or attacked you. Not even remotely. Had you actually read my post, you would have seen that I asked questions. Questions to which you did not then or now respond. You accuse me of wasting good time and space. It is my time, not yours, and I will spend it as I see fit. As for the space, after reading some of the scathing posts directed to or about Yojsouth, I felt the questions I asked just might put a somewhat different light on the matter. You were free to agree, disagree, or refrain from any comment at all. But, as typical, you choose to take my post, denigrate it, and strut the holier-than-thou card. I recommend you read and follow your own words. Certainly if they apply to you they apply equally to all. I quote: "Unless and until I hear from the person that does monitor the board, I will assume that my post are on target. Again, I have received nothing from the ACTUAL monitors of the Virginia History List, so I will continue to post." and another "By the way, you do not own the list, and you do not control the information that flows on it." and another "Again, until the MODERATOR of the list pulls me aside and ask me to refrain from posting, I will post what I want. Now when a posting does not pertain to me I tend to pass it up, but you do not have the same restrains. Are you bored, why don't you get a hobby, such as Genealogy. After all you are right here at the site, why don't you use it?" and another "I wouldn't believe you if your tongue came notarized." These are your words, Ms. Wills. I did not make them up, change them, or comment on their worth. By your own admission you do see and read things from Yojsouth. Otherwise how do you account for the statement you made below, "...the only time I see anything from yosouth, is when someone responds and attaches his (mostly negative) post?" As for me, what on earth does the number of "posts you have responded to over the last week, let alone anytime prior to that." have to do with anything? You are correct about one thing, but you didn't go far enough. Allow me. This post AND your preceding post have nothing to do with the VA-HIST list.

If you read my posts you would know that the only time I see anything from yosouth, is when someone responds and attaches his (mostly negative) post. I cannot tell you which posts you have responded to over this last week, let alone anytime prior to that. So it is interesting to me that you would make a statement like that about me. In fact I will not be reading or responding to any of your postings, since this is a Virginia History list, and you do not seem interested in History.
