    I had to reread it three times before I got it. That just made it cleverer and funnier. Thanks Pete…

    Ahh… Thank you… I did miss that…

    I know that I’m missing something here, but what?

    Alan Turing OBE, the inventor of the “Bombe”, a machine for decoding the German Enigma Machine, that changed the entire course of WW2, (born just up the road from where I lived, in Maida Vale, West London) – Not too bright…? I’d love to know how you evaluate “bright”…

    The Enigma Machine can be viewed in Bletchley Park, Milton Keynes (where our synagogue was, until we constructed our own building, 20 years ago)…

    Ok this has gone on long enough. Just who the hell do you think you are? You still think that you’re the GC policeman. Getting banned still hasn’t taught you any lessons. Report me or not. Your credibility with the REAL moderators, has been zero for a long time. I have discussed this with AMU Support and I’m aware of my permitted limits.

    I will continue doing what I’ve been doing, within my own, personal boundaries and those of GC. Also on the advice of those friends, on GC, I’m in email contact with. I assume you’re on the list, so you’ve seen my question, there. The last person I would listen to or take advice from, is you.

    GC may ask why you’re trolling around the site, checking up on me. Am I really so important to you that you need to stalk me? Should I report you to the moderators, for stalking me? I’ll be taking the advice of friends on the email chain, and deleting any comment from you, directed towards me, unopened. It’s very unusual for me to even dislike someone, but in your case, I actually detest you. You make me sick. No-one is scared of you. Get over yourself. You’re a nobody.

    (8) are believed to be alternate account of a previously banned account… I’d keep that particular Comment Policy in mind before you start threatening anyone else…

    I have to be honest, personally, I don’t have a problem with your comment, today. You’ve added just enough to make it less tedious. Thank you…

    1… If you don’t press the Reply button, no one will know that you posted. Ahh, you didn’t want anyone to know. Understandable.

    2… MY business, not yours I’m sorry, but if you post on a public forum, it becomes everyone’s business.

    3… doesn’t mean you have to share it But it does mean that I can share it.

    4… you telling me what to say You’ll have to point out where I’ve told you what to say. Your overactive imagination, again. That’s not something I would do. Unlike you, telling me to mind my own business.

    5… got bored half-way through! I’m not sure admitting that your attention span is so limited is really something you should be confessing to.

    6… YOU have the time to write a full-length novel My comments are there to be read or not. It’s no skin off my nose whether you read my little gems, or not. But from the Likes I regularly receive, often into the 20s, you’re still in your sad minority of one.

    7… YOU have the time My professional typing speed, means I can type a comment, this length, in five to ten minutes. Something I actually enjoy doing. Especially if I can wind-up a troll, at the same time.

    8… Nor do we have time to read it! Who’s the we ? Are you hearing those voices, in your head, again? You’re on your own, sunshine.

    9… If you enjoy any cartoon, on this site, we all can tick the Like box (something I regularly do) for that cartoon. Your problem is that the Like is anonymous. And you need to see your name displayed. You’re so lacking in self-confidence, you need this reassurance of your existence…

    10… I’ve noticed that you have a tendency for avoiding points you don’t like or can’t answer. I’ve itemised the above ten points to help you not to miss any.

    So “Millers” is something uniquely American ?

    Does it ever occur to you that you’re in a minority of one, with no Likes… This would suggest that there’s only one troll… Anyone can offer a comment, opinion or criticism. If you don’t like it, scroll on…
