Thanks this person ended with that written at the bottom after just putting that they were joking and had meant nothing by what they had said earlier.
I felt that it meant something or they would not have put it there, they probably did not think that I would follow up. Also you are right I
misspelled it when I typed it in.

WOW
Gryffen, M, I never cease to be amazed at the knowledge that people have on this board. I consider myself quite intelligent and I had no idea, I
would have had to Google it. Btw, Gryffen, miss seeing you in chat, hope to see you soon. I read your blog and got a new understanding of you that I
never had before.
