Really?

I guess indirect inferences escapes thee. ;)

Of course I understood he misspelled it.

The ????? are calling attention to that without direct 'accusation'. :)



Now you have gone and caused me to do so. :(

I didn't cause anything. If you didn't want to talk about this on the forum, you could have either ignored the typo to start with or you could have used a PM to rag on me.

Likewise, I could have and should ignored your post as well.

Dusty, you take me far too seriously!

I did not take the "Really" serious myself.

But it deserved a reply. ;)

Good, I am really glad to hear that. With that realization, let's just cut out all of the bull shit and talk wood working, wood working tools and Shopsmith.

I see all these buys of never used vises as a classic example of effectiveness of a smooth sales pitch to trigger impulse buying. People obviously were convinced to buy something that they would never use or to use it so little they can now sell them as never used or like new condition.
Interesting!
