    I should like to apologise for my poor Usenet posting behaviour when I

    group and I most certainly did not intend that any bad actors should
    follow me here but, as some will know only too well, they did. I am
    really sorry and hope that at least some of you will forgive me.

    I have paid for a number of on-line courses over the years and, with the >>> advent of a new operating system, I am wondering if others here have

    Did ANYONE read my message?

    Please advise.

    Thank you.

    I did not see the original.

    Can you *FIND* the original apology, Michael?

    There are three 'sampler' videos at the link which one may watch free of
    charge.

    If you do have a look, please enjoy.


    Did ANYONE read my message?

    Please advise.

    Thank you.

    I did not see the original.

    Can you *FIND* the original apology, Michael?

    I did not see it. Did you want to point to it for me to read?

    Yes! :-D Maybe you can also suggest why nobody accepted my apology. >>>>

    I do not believe I saw it. You cannot take responsibility for the trolls. They

    Many folk posting on Usenet believe that YOU are the mightiest Troll of all, >> Michael! ;-)

    Do they? Keep in mind much of what the trolls say is not to be taken literally. They do not care about honesty the way you and I do -- they focus more on tribalism and scapegoating.

    You are probably absolutely right!

    I personally prefer the truth.

    However, you have never tried to hurt or harm me in any way and, on many
    occasions, have done your very best to help me solve computer-related concerns
    to the best of your ability. For that, you have my warmest thanks. :-D

    Of course.
