Many list members were on me like flies on road
kill. With some rather snide remarks to the effect that how could I know
that without having tried it yet. Of course no one said anything to the
person that claimed it *was* a dot 5 upgrade. Anyway, I think many LUG
members just latched on to a small part of my post and jumped to
conclusions. ...
I saw that. It was unintentionally funny to me when Orren Merton told you not to be arrogant and flash your credentials around (as a software developer) then in his posts he puts long list of books he has authored (and web links acting as free advertising for his books) that make it appear that he is flashing his credentials around.
I just chuckle to myself at the hypocrisy, but more seriously, did he really have to respond to your message? You said you didn't think it was a significant upgrade, and thats your opinion, and why not just let it go. Its incredibly arrogant for this guy to lecture you publicly and demean your credentials and imply your opinion is worthless. Its incredibly rude in my view. But he's a moderator and you don't dare complain, lest you get banned.
Over the years I have seen some people who have programming backgrounds or more professional backgrounds try to get on and say things, and the "in crowd" always slams them down and eventually they tire of the hassle. And other decent and professional people seem to get busy with families and fade away.
By the way, if you want a good book on Logic, Len Sasso wrote a good book. Stephen Bennet wrote some. And the Apple training manual for logic is something I wish I had years ago. I bought the other book, but found it uninspired and sold it on Amazon.
