*You* weren't being called a dipwad. I was referring to the guy in another list years ago that mentioned deleting all the dll files a dipwad. I asked if you were that guy. Obviously, you are not, but how do you expect a response like "format c:" to be received?
If you were serious about your suggestion of formatting the c drive, then maybe you should take my comment seriously. If you were, as I expect, making a joke, then you should not be so serious about my response to your joke, which is also a joke.
Do you expect that people should take you seriously when you make a joke?
Or do expect people should take you seriously when you suggest formatting the c drive?
Lauren

I don't consider being called a dipwad by anyone as humorous.

I think I should be insulted by this response, but you going through
life without a sense of humor must be hard enough for you.
