>>It's that some people criticize Dr. Bob when it suits their needs, but they complain about others for doing the same.
....a pervasive part of the human condition, I've noticed, here, there and everywhere.
>>Still, the real point of my post is that...we have never threatened (or alluded to threatening) to sue Dr. Bob!
....well, the point of this post is to question the usefulness of bringing up the past, and presenting it to people (some, not me, of course, might say 'throwing it in people's faces'). It does not seem to serve any particular purpose.
What do you get out of doing it? Do you have a purpose in doing it? Do you believe that people have forgotten what they've said before and need reminding? Or, is there a larger point that I just don't grasp? I'm curious because you have done the same thing to me (the 'you previously said' thing), and it just felt like a poke. Not that giving someone a poke when one can is a bad thing, just wondering if there is a point to it.
