: A question for you sir. What is the difference between a demand and an enquiry? I was merely enquiring whether or not the offer was valid for me, not demanding a poster from Kevin. There is a big differance. This point was stated in my previous post, but in your haste/ignorance you seem to have ignored it.
: As for calling me limey? Twice. With the exact same wording. I couldn't care less. Don't get me wrong, I know you weren't getting personal, it's just that it doesn't make sense. A Limey is traditionally a term used for a British person. And I am Irish.
: However, my judgemental friend, you have seemingly fallen into the 'Dumb American' stereotype.
: : But step out of your own situation and look at it. Would it not be ridiculous to ask say, PEPSI to honor a promotion they did of their own free will because the Expiration Date was 5/8/01 and Europe puts the Date First so you thought you had until the fifth of August and not the 8th of March.
: March is actually the 3rd Month in the year, not fifth. But enough of this nitpicking. Not that I feel the need to defend my question to you, I will reiterate my point - I was asking whether or not said offer was valid.
: End of story.
: Oh yeah, give the counrty back to the Native Americans (read: Indians), dumb American.
: -John.
: Oh and Fuck You Too.
