I appreciate your straightforwardness and honesty. And thanks for calling me out.

I don't think you should be upset that people like me can make this little website's history repeat itself. As thenewgreen told me on my very first, and biggest post, he asked the same question just some time beforehand. However, a fresh slate and fresh eyes open the door for a completely, totally, utterly different plethora of possibilities for the discussion to progress to.

I was trying to highlight you more as beneficial than anything - I mentioned that when you repeated a question (and partially because of my fondness for you as a Hubski participant) I not only participated but threw forth new information in an attempt to keep the thread, for me, new and interesting.

But it is possible for things to have multiple qualities at once and there was definitely a moment or two when I was like "Yeah I just asked that quesiton." (Which also goes into interesting questions of hubris and perceived 'ownership.' I am not perfect. I am rarely even a better angel. At least I try to be honest.)
