Re: Enough of Ginger

["D. Blake" <dblake@bright.net>]

Psubs Members:
I appologize (once again) if I inadvertently offended anyone.  That was not
my aim.  Ginger, like all members who contribute; has very interesting
thought provoking ideas.  And I enjoy them.
Like many of you I suppose.  I have a proffessional background and interact
daily with fellow employees who happen to be female.  My feelings of
discomfort are probably rooted in the severe sanctions that take place on
individuals who fail to tow the line, and intermix playful titilating
humorous comments into their discourse.  I know what you are thinking.
"Your not on the job here Pal."  I know that, and I will try to adjust
accordingly.
I hope any future comments/ideas on my part will be worthy of your
attention.  But like I indicated when I first joined this group, I'am new to
this field and very much interested in learning.  I probably will not be
able to add much, at least initially.
Anyway, I will take the advice like old Jerry Garcia use to sing: "Don't
dominate the rap Jack, unless you got something new to say."
TTLY,
David

>We totally agree with both of your observations about Ginger's awful
e-mails.  My wife and I were very wrong to say we wondered where Ginger was
and that we missed her. Her very low tech Sub Cycle idea and square power
fins ideas were horrible to read and we also felt uncomfortable.
>
>Especially when all of our dignified male psubs members including Jon W.
wrote e-mails to the list about the high tech topic about which side Ginger
should put warming fur lining in her bikini bottoms to keep her (whatever)
warm when she's diving.  Where were you then, Axel and David?
>
>We on the list found Axel's fine  contributions far more technical and less
"emotional" for David Blake so he won't feel it uncomfortable to read.
Axel, we all are very glad you are impressed with Phil and his Exosuit.  And
for him to throw one in his suitcase when he comes to visit you in France.
(So damn witty!)  And then to say just to use the Exosuit as a "suitcase".
(stop it, stop it, so so funny,) and then, is there a suitcase handle on the
back! (such humor,) and then to finish your "technical comedy act" with,
"I'll be pleased to wear this kind of bath-suit"  Great material, wow,
wonderful stuff about "your" bathing suit and we all will ignore Ginger's
bikini "bath-suit" for your "technical" Exosuit "bath-suit".
>
>The totally "manly" reason you didn't both write to Ginger by personal
e-mail was because you were complete gentleman and didn't want to hurt her
feelings on the public psubs list.
>
>Good for you both, Axel and David, we are happy you aren't both cowards and
just told Ginger off good in public.  We're very proud of you both.  Now,
let's get back to both of your future highly "technical only" contributions,
as we can hardly wait to see what you both come up with that's "personally
original" rather than just simply responding to someone else's ideas.  Your
"rules" are our "rules" and are good for everyone.
>
>No more fun, just technical stuff.  Now that you both have settled this
awful psubs matter, you both have the floor.

>Sincerely yours, Jack
