I don't know if I'm the "David" referred to here, but the thread is
following on a post that I made. However, it's one in which the word
"bitch" does not occur. Nor did I use the word in any of my posts in
this thread. Indeed, I strongly doubt I've ever used the word at all
in a post in the Access newgroups.

Just to be sure, I used Google Groups to check that, and, it turns
out, I've used the word a lot, but always in the sense of "bitching
about X" or "X is a bitch" and only twice in reference to an
individual. In those two posts I once used it in a conditional
sense, basically "Anyone who does respect and appreciate the
contributions of a particular person ... is an ungrateful son of a
bitch" (seehttp://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.access.replication/ms
g/c5019e354ce6265e). Only once did I actually call someone
specifically "an arrogant son of a bitch"
(http://groups.google.com/group/comp....s/msg/ad691354
483e1c31). I have never and would never call anyone (male or female)
a "bitch."

In the present discussion, I did call someone a moron, something I
do quite frequently. But I don't do it gratuitously -- I only get to
that point after substantial evidence has demonstrated to me that it
is warranted. Others can judge for themselves in this thread whether
or not the party so designated by me was in fact demonstrating
stupidity in his posts or not.
