Allen:

I don't really know what could be causing the font size issue on your computer. I'm writing in 10pt and everything else on my setup is "normal" whatever that means. If there's something identifiable that I can do on this end, please let me know. And thanks for the kind words.

Paul, 


Funny - I took your signature phrase to imply an approach the exact opposite of any sort of arrogance. I think you're wise to put it in lower case, though, and the fact that it came from a fortune cookie is quite remarkable (usually those sayings are so banal and self-evident or meaningless) and worth adding.


Only one thing I would hope for is that you could figure out how to make your posts come onto my screen in larger font size - it's really tiny and I have to hit my + key to enlarge it...I'm never sure what causes that, and if it's just my machine or everyone's that reads it that way. Or maybe it's  Mac/Windows thing, or browser issues?


Regards,


Allen Wright

Ric (and others):

Thanks for your kind words. In truth (not an opinion), I have taken this saying as one of those found objects that we all come across at times and consider it to be oddly profound, so decided to create the "signature" in order to remind myself as I was writing on this list that I am dealing with some very smart and tough-minded people; that (my) opinion can indeed blinker me to the truth and that I had better watch my step: I don't have to have an opinion about everything. Or anything for that matter. It is is, actually, a difficult little saying to get one's brain around, so it can be disturbing if one doesn't wish to investigate self-reflexive conundrums (conundra?). Looking at it closely, I don't think there is any "attitude" expressed. It makes my mind wobble (more than it usually does) and I like that. I've revised the format so that it perhaps won't be as obtrusive.

I've read several objections to Pauls little logo thingy...  and 
personally I disagree entirely.  The actual meaning the words have are 
something I agree with to begin with, and something just about everyone 
on the face of the planet would benefit from remembering from time to time. 

Lots of folks on this list attach something or another as part of their 
signature.  Dean signs his post with "blessings"... which I suppose 
would bother some non religious types.  Conrad has his little daily 
dailys.... and others. 

Perhaps the capital letters here bother some since its the same all the 
time.  In anycase.... big deal.  As with all other such signatures...  I 
see them a few times, understand the fellow/gal has something (usually 
good in meaning) on their mind and let it be.  Jumping to the conclusion 
that the person has an attitude problem seems to me in anycase..... 
presumptuous at b! est.  I see nothing in Pauls posts about various issues 
discussed that would support that conclusion.  Quite the opposite... he 
strikes me as openminded, curious, and quite polite. 

Cheers

   I love a superior  attitude......................as long as it's a 
   humble   
   one.

   Please drop the  attitude.
