Brian don't be too harsh on Dave. Remember how bright Palin was in
her Couric interview? I can only assume Alaska has special needs
starting from the Govenor's office all the way down to the people.
The really sad thing is if people have to resort to name calling
showing how mature or bright they are, imagine who you could be
driving next to? That's a scary thought.

then either post to a different thread or be more "accurate" about what
you're trying to say - this whole thread is a comparison, hence the
above comment.

see above. your first post expressed enthusiasm for digital, with your
reason being accuracy. if you just like digital, that's fine. if you
appreciate accuracy, that's great too - i know i do. but they are not
synonymous - as is conveyed when you try to reason one because of the
other, which is exactly what you did..

my, you must live in a cotton-wool ball if you don't like minor bumps.
how do you hold down a job where management confronts you with reality
about /real/ things like "performance" and "pay"?

You might want to re-read THIS thread. The question had nothing to do
with a comparison, the guy just asked if people liked the digital in
the civic.

My first response expressed enthusiasm for the digital in my car, and
made no comparison to any other. The only mention of Analog was in
the fact that I like the placement of the digital in the Civic better
than I like the placement of the analog in my Dodge truck, and never
mentioned accuracy, one way or the other, of the analog.

Management has never confronted me. I can't remember a single time
where my annual performance reviews were not stellar, and my pay raise
wasn't in line with that.
Perhaps your experience in that field further explains your **** poor
attitude and demeanor, and might be explained by your outrageous
pedantry. Not a further problem here, though, you are back where you
belong...

You're right Guy. Dave *might* just be a passenger on the short white bus.

It takes all kinds to make up this world, unfortunately a lot of them
have computers and phones and have a basic knowledge of how to use that
technology. :^)

You mean like the obvious attempts by T&A Couric during that exchange. I
refuse to call it an interview. Couric tried to talk down to Sarah but found
that she was totally outclassed.

you said:
"I wasn't sure if I'd like it or not, but it works great, is very accurate"
that is a direct comparison between the dial gauge that you used
previously, and digital. and you use the rationale of accuracy for
"working great".
it seems you didn't intend to mean that, but that is what your words
convey. and i'm not contesting your taste, but i am contesting the
rationale that "digital" is "accurate" because those are /not/ synonymous.

really??? and "stellar" performance means what exactly? annual pay
