If you wanted to participate in the social pattern that may give you the
best chance of a response, the preferred format for your post would have
been...
"Hi Ian, All,
On Saturday, January 24, Ian said:

Calvin says:
Call me Calvin. [Maybe a bit more here.]
[closing of your choice],
Calvin"
Keep in mind that just because no responds doesn't mean that your post
wasn't read and valued. Maybe it was so good that there is simply nothing
more to say.
Also, asking direct questions to specific people will make you more likely
to get a response.
On Dec 17, under the Capture of a Tyrant thread you said:
>i believe you've said it best.
I for one had no idea what you were referring to. It would be helpful if
you would click reply, turn off html formatting, cut out any irrelevant
parts of the previous quotes, and reference any relevant quotes that you are
responding to.
Lastly, inserting an occasional smiley will make you look friendly. :-)
Good luck,
Steve
