it doesn't surprise me at all. most people are ignorant and lazy.

I'll guarantee you that I'm much more intelligent than you, [censored].

is that why you have to resort to name-calling?

Nope, I just don't react well to being attacked by a bunch of
strangers for no real reason.

It has a different chemical composition if that's what you mean.

I mean, can one use these other ones instead without comprimising
anything. Actually, I was looking at the old sweetener I used to use
and it have half a gram of carbs in one packet.

if you perceive the simplest, least confrontational of corrections to be
an attack, you aren't going to have a very good time on usenet.

To insult people? And call them names?

Good to see you aren't reading the back-posts.

Jack, you've gotten some helpful responses. You've also gotten some that
you consider less than helpful. This is just my opinion, of course, but you
don't add anything to the discourse by reacting to the latter with
invective. Thank the folks who helped, ignore the others. I suggest this
for two reasons. First, it helps keep up the signal-to-noise ratio in the
group. But second, and perhaps more importantly for you, if those helpful
folks start to associate your name with insult-filled posts, they'll stop
reading your questions and you'll stop getting helpful answers. Yes, we
have some cranky veterans around here. I just don't think much is
accomplished by flying off the handle at them.

Carla, I know you're right about this. But it just bugs me how some
people feel the need to waste their time talking bs to me for asking a
very simple question. I mean, why would these people want to
discourage a new person from doing this? Yes, it is also a waste of
my time to reply to them. But it's also my thread, and I should
really not have to read stuff like this. Helpful advice is great, I
appreciate it a lot. But negative, discouraging feedback makes me
just want to say "screw it". Anyway, I'm gonna try and not feed these
trolls. Thanks.

Slight correction: It's not your thread...it's PD...when you post, anyone
can reply as they see fit. You, OTOH, have complete freedom to ignore or
not. You choose not to. Also, they are not trolls.

You're too stupid to know what an attack is.
