Gamma?
Why don't you respond to responses to your posts? A MISC BB works much better if dialogs take place rather than just single postings.

Re: Gamma?
..Oops, Was I supposed to post, "Thanks for the offer, but I'm
not interested"{?}.. which, incidentally, IS the case{!}
 
..In my own little 'world', though I'm normally a 'please-and-
thankyou' person, 'imho'.. there are already Way Too Many
bloggers, who are trying {usually, without appreciable success}
to become little {name your favorite, nationally syndicated
columnist, and/or, the 'ancient-of-days' "Paul Harvey"-types}
who will Forever be, let's say.. {very} little, Paul Harvey, or,
Matt Drudge, 'wannebees'!!
 
..The absence of a reply, should.. in Some cases, be regarded as
a 'thanks, but not interested'; rather than going through the
formality of replying, to the same effect!
..Then again, if we were let's say, 'buddy-buddies'; as in, weekly
fishing, golf, card-game or fellow church-elder parishioners; only
then, {'imho'} should the absence of a response, be regarded as a
'slight'{!}
..P.s.- Remember, at the risk of sounding like I hold grudges, {tho
I don't}.. it was circa 60-hours ago, that you posted, that perhaps
no one read my {'BB'} posts, and I may not have noticed, because I
might be "too busy reading my own posts."
..Not exactly conducive to even having it occur to me, to officially
{if, politely} decline your offer{!}.. Cheers

Re: Gamma?
To each his own, but in the world which I live if someone raises a topic normally that means they are intersted in conversing about what it is they have brought forward to discuss.
 
Further, you've seen more than once that I use sarcasm as a way of making my points, that's really nothing new though I am trying my best to not make that happen here.
