...but your natural discursiveness is hard to let alone. Your conclusion is totally false. If I were as you described (in last paragraph), I wouldn't bother to follow-up at all. I'd just laugh off the opposition I've received, wouldn't I? I wanted to present a contrast between a human's death and an animal's. I don't think anyone puts them in the same class. I'm not sure though when I hear some pet owners/animal rights activists. That's all. The "semantic" point was my way to bring about a little thought on this contrast. I'm afraid to elaborate too fully for fear of turning THIS posting into a re-run of the earlier one (which would only hasten the deletion of the thread, the patience of the moderators and maybe a deletion of any future postings of mine).

Much more could be said, trust me. One example: I recall a year or so ago, that a Muzikmike lost an in-law (can't recall if mother-in-law or father-in-law). At the time, I didn't know who Muzikmike was or his regularity on the Asylum. He received perhaps a dozen posts expressing well-meant condolences. Fine. This was on the 'Vinyl' board, as I recall. Fine. A short time earlier, another poster had lost a dog (i.e., the dog died). He received perhaps TEN TIMES the number of condolence postings. This was on the 'General' board. Now, I can see that any 'General' board posting (of any nature) is going to receive a higher readership than any other board. However, when I look at the number of condolence postings to Mint Vinyl [?] and his loss of his pet on the 'Vinyl' board, I can see that the readership is not so different in quantity. Also, I now see that Muzikmike seems to be almost a 'legend' on the Asylum (long-timer, well liked and respected). I would guess his 'stature' to be greatly larger than the other poster [name forgotten] who posted his dog's loss on the 'General' board. I find this totally unacceptable (and let's forget the jokes about in-laws and relatives).

Respect,
Guy
