Tell us, bankston: After 17 pages of responses, what exactly do you want from people NOW on this thread? What do you still need to know?
    If you want job advice, you've received plenty already. What more do you want?
    If you just want compassion, please tell us.
    If you want more fodder for your own writing, let us know what topics you're most interested in.
    If you want to see how long a thread you can build by trolling, we can all stop it right now.
    If you simply want attention, buy some guns and call your local TV station.
How's that? Your call. Shocked


Well, I had had questions. But most of these pages have involved either me responding to charges or answering questions from others. I know some of you seem entertained by the notion I'm a troll or engaging in some sort of literary experiment, but that is not the case. People like you, Henry, drew this whole thing out by being so nasty and insulting.

What do you need TODAY (from people on an anonymous Internet forum) that will help you get what you want? Please answer. If there's nothing left that you need to know, why not log off your computer and get busy?

Haven't you taken the thread as far as it can go?

Actually today I don't need anything. I'm busy pursuing job leads online, setting up interviews, and preparing to distribute more apps this afternoon. I will probably get on the board later this evening if I have the time.

Inderstand, Henry, you're keeping this thing going by giving me questions to answer.

Moderators please lock this thread ....and others who feel the same please post likewise.


Enough is enough. If the original poster has a genuine question that has not been answered so far then I suggest he asks it by starting another thread that is to the point.

Indeed. This thread has gone on for about 17 pages too long.
