You're right, I am doing a lot of assuming. But if Ace would express himself clearly to start with, or clarify what he means after the fact, then I wouldn't have to. I still don't know what he means by "firing his sweet trigger". I'm not trying to be a jerk, but when words in a forum are the only way we have to get to know or understand someone, then we need to be clear. Having to figure out what someone means (in any venue) makes me uneasy, which in turn would make me nervous if I would have to trust and have confidence in him as a partner. Forum members give Chuck good-natured (I think) grief about being the spelling-nazi, but perfect spelling in a forum such as this is really of little importance as long as the idea is understood.

You asked me why that would make me nervous and I tried to give a complete, thorough answer. And be honest, if you had a partner who had some of the characteristics I previously described (and I agree that I'm wrong to imply Ace has any of those characteristics), wouldn't that make you a little nervous?

And looking back to my original post on this subject, I probably should have just asked Ace for clarification and kept my editorial comment to myself. But that would hardly have been in the spirit of this forum, would it?
