I assumed it was all the other BS on FT, this was and will be the only time I have posted in the Community thread, I always post in my own interest, Air Canada, where I might add we freely talk about everything, without the need for a moderator.
I think its because we are peace loving free speaking people that have a grip on life.
And for that reason I posted in the community forum, right or wrong, this is not real life and most of you need to take a step back from FT now and again.
I understand why
ralfkrippner pulled it, though I feel it would have been easier to move it.
I have apoligies to
ralfkrippner and he accepted my apoligy.
I consider this a closed item.
I am aware that some people on FT have the intent to drag things on to cause more of a reaction.
Those are known to themselves.
I don't really care who can speak english or not, it is totally irrelevant to FT.
Ozstamps does not even warrant a reply.
