Brandon (gotta love that; direct address to someone he's "killfiled"),
adults use killfiles so that they don't have to see posts they've
decided, for whatever reason, that they wish not to read anymore.  If
you really wanted to killfile me to avoid reading my posts, you'd adjust
your killfile to toss emails that were in response to me, or at least
show the self-restraint not to read -- and respond! -- to them.

It's clear enough from your behavior in this group (and in other groups
over the years; there's nothing new here) that you say, "Welcome to my
killfile" in order to somehow feel superior over people who really
couldn't give a crap who is in your killfile or isn't.  Announcing to
the world who is in your killfile and who isn't is just childish and
stupid.  Replying to people who are supposed to be in your killfile to
tell them they are, in fact, in your killfile, is just beyond stupid.

But you still felt it necessary to mention it, huh?
