As for the grouchy Old Codgers some of you say you never see?...they proliferate everywhere. Angry, rude, closed minded, overtly religious or political (and by damned they are right!...always. Or so they think and say endlessly)
.
Well Daniel, obviously I don't know you or how old you are...
However I must say that YOUR description here is what I had envisioned for you.. :h
You have upset a few folks over on the Alaska/Canada forum with your posts about costs in Canada being "unnecessarily" high. Its really not your place to dictate why costs are what they are in a country you are just "visiting"...
You can for sure state that they are higher, but to say unnecessarily is just wrong. You defended your position to the point the thread got closed as the upset folks were addressing you.. :S
You have stated in more than one post that "IF" you had a way to get to Alaska without even entering Canada, you would use it. I understand you have a concern that another way may have even higher "COSTS" involved but really; that's the route you should pursue.
We have enough G O C in Canada now, don't need another who doesn't even want to be there so will probably be even more grouchy.
EDIT---
Daniel, I am currently a guest in YOUR country. Since late December actually and I would never make complaints about pricing here.
Its high for us with current exchange situation; but "it is what it is"
I chose to be here so I sure as heck will not (and don't think have ever) complain about prices being high.
First of all as you may not realize I was NOT the OP of that thread. The OP used a post of mine in another thread as the basis for his thread. This was done to start a controversy it is clear. He misstated what I said and took it out of context. I had exactly two posts in that thread. It was closed after some very angry and personal responses by the Canadians on the thread. It was not closed because of my attempt to set straight what I had said and explain it's context as I did politely and civilly.
What this has to do with this topic however is beyond me except that you wanted to continue the same kind of post that got that thread closed and continue to argue your point. I think it's rather out of bounds to try to hijack this topic with your continued personal condemnation of me.
And you are right you don't know me and therefore any speculation about my nature is at it's heart unfair and disingenuous to say nothing of being completely inaccurate.
