My point is that the response was so predictable. So why start.
Is the correct spelling so important to go through this. Obviously the detractors don't find it very important. So it's like rubbing a sore over and
over. Where's the pleasure. Or is that the pleasure. Isn't the point to enjoy reading info on this website.
Then there are those who say don't look. I always get a kick out of that. Because those that say it, looked at your response and responded. So how am
I to respond to don't look. In the same way - don't look at my response to the response you don't think I should look. It's absurd. It is safe to
completely ignore such an admonition. And yet it's so common.

Gee wiz, I was just offering free geography here and because of mostly CortezBlue, I decided to explain WHY...
Read the first post I made... It explains it all... For Diana T and others to 'read' more into it, that isn't the case... For Igor, I explained why...
I don't care if a few don't like that I try and show the correct spelling... A loss for them, perhaps.
It is about learning and fun! That's all!!
If you don't want to have fun, why go to Baja, why be on Baja Nomad??
Okay amigos? Chill out and have a great day! |
Can you just answer the question?
Is that it? You just don't care? You don't care that you're rubbing that sore over and over. Why?
Can you try to reconsider?

I have been slapping my hand. I am starting to feel guilty. He is enjoying it way too much and I am just being an enabler to his masochistic
behavior.

I love you all... and so what if spelling Guerrero Negro or Puertecitos correctly is what this thread IS about... yet, you see how politics got
brought up?
The needs of the many outweight the complaints of the few
If you don't need it, then go to another thread, it is that easy!! Nobody is making you do things my way here!
Don't let what I like to post on Nomad BOTHER YOU! I am NOT trying to upset anyone... I am only trying to teach, it is what I enjoy doing... and learn
more, while doing it.
So far, I have learned that no matter what I say or how I say it, a FEW of you HEAR it differently!?!
I am not playing with words, no guessing if IS means IS... Just exactly what I typed in the opening post is what I was conveying (or trying to
convey).
Thanks to TheBajaRunner for the link to a thread I did on Baja spelling, IN 2003!!
Because we are still spelling places 'Guerro Negro', 'Puertocitos', 'Alphonsina's', 'Los Barilles', 'Santo Thomas', etc. there is obviously Nomads who
haven't read that thread... New people here every day... and just MAYBE a few of them would like a polite heads-up on the right spelling.
I have never, never been negative or rude to anyone if I did reply with the correct spelling... However, as you don't see my face or hear my voice
here, maybe you hear it as a negative or rude... Sorry if you do, that is NOT me! Ask the many Nomads who spent any time with me, if I am a jerk... I
think (hope) at least 9 out of 10 Nomads have an okay opinion of me!
Now, again have a nice day... okay? (or for Canadian Nomads: okay, eh?)

Barry,
You look at Romney and see right away that he's not like you and me. Coiffered and aloof you realize that he belongs to a class that is so distant. No
one can relate to his way of life.
I think that's going to hurt him. Despite his platform. Despite coming from wealth Bush prided himself in his simplicity. His idea of a vacation was
fishing his bass ponds. Although often embarassing I think the public liked this.
Anyway, I think Romney needs to work on his image. Only - no Romney riding a tank promos.

Spell Check
If you want to use old vernacular, it,s spelled, "Gee Whiz!"
Also, Romney is a fail because the middle class doesn't trust him and women really do not like him.

LIAR. These are perceived needs you can't substantiate.

See above. If criticism bothers you then YOU go to another thread.

Stop the teaching. Aside from the arrogance we all know the lesson. Teach something new. Something significant.
It's true. You are never rude.
You know your behavior is remarkably like ramuma's. A man you detest. Of course I can't even think to compare your motive with his.

See, here is a perfect example of how I am not able to communicate to some, the way I do it... Help me Barry, Runner, Tripper (and others that
understand me better)
I am not being a liar, Igor... You either don't care for my sharing here or you just like to be confrontational maybe? I don't think so or hope not...
but don't call me a liar when you don't understand my posts here.

Why can't you do like most forum members. Offer photos, trip reports, experiences and QUESTIONS without all the other baggage.

I apologize David,
I just reached my limit somehow and can't take it much longer.
You understand my objection and choose to ignore it. As you say, you don't care. You haven't answered questions directly and pick and choose to fill
your agenda. You are incapable of change, preferring to assume that there are conspiracies against you. How convenient it is to not accept things at
face value.
No more from me. I should never have taken the trouble.

O.K. Time to lighten up, folks
Heck, I even made peace (piece?) with Dennis a while back,
nice private exchanges and all.
So, David can be a little over the top at times,
but no one, absolutely no one, has brought more good info, history, mapping, etc to the site than DK.
So, take him with a grain of salt, or tune him out if you think his work is not helpful, but meanwhile name calling should go back to the school yard
tomorrow when the children are back in school.
Someone beat me to it,
but in the immortal words of Rodney King,
"Can't we all just get along?"

I guess... whatever Igor... I am just having fun sharing some facts and history/ geography about Baja... THAT'S IT.
I don't know why you and Ralph are trying to read other motives into it... I also did not mean to ignore any questions, they must have gotten lost in
the blur of anti DK stuff. Send me a u2u if you have a question I didn't answer, if you wish. I am not ignoring you, I just thought I answered it
already with what I typed... My bad, perhaps?
Spelling a Baja place correctly isn't a crime, and neither is spelling it wrong! Telling you why I try and help here shouldn't be a crime either...
yes?
