I'm not sure what you are talking about. If I remember
correctly, it was you who explicitly asked for an opinion of the
Weber quinetet? Is that correct?

I presumed you were not being disingenuous, and, as a result, I
gave you an opinion.

In what way was your comment taken out of context,
misinterpreted, misunderstood, misread, or seen as plebian and
pedantic. You got what you asked for.

What's the problem here?

THe thing that I *DO NOT* understand or appreciate for that
matter is why my
comments are always taken out of context, misinterpreted,
misunderstood,
misread, or just plainly seen as plebeian and pendantic.

As such this is my last, and while I gave $50.00 to the upkeep of
this list
I wish now that I hadn't becasue all I've gotten since being here
is nothing
but misunderstanding and disrespect.

Goodbye.
