Nobody knew what you meant by B&H. there certainly was no reason why we should have known you meant Best Buy, as for a day or two none of us knew there was a Best Buy in the vicinity. All that we did know was that there was no B&H in the vicinity.

Sandman
Exactly my point. And no one at any point said that there is no B&H in Orlando, and that I must be mistaken. I know that because if they had, I would have gone "oops, my bad, I meant Best Buy" - you know, exactly what I did when Savageduck prompted me.

Eric Stevens
You were told B&H has only the one branch and that was in NYC.

Sandman
Actually, no. This was your post:

"B&H in NY? - or is there another branch I don't know about?"

To which I replied "I am in Orlando, Florida, and I was specifically at the B&H at the loop", still thinking Best Buy. I had no problem imagining you thinking that Best Buy wasn't in Florida.

That was in reply to me but then in Message-ID: <2014041719593639934-savageduck1@REMOVESPAMmecom>a few hours later Savageduck wrote:

"B&H is a massive store, the furthest from *very tiny* that anybody could possibly imagine. Take a look at their store information video at full screen. < http://www.bhphotovideo.com/find/HelpCenter/NYSuperStore08.jsp >

But then you didn't look at that, did you?

For a reasonably full list of who said what when see Message <9qkjl95nn53r3sm81u1te6uvmavjf0kv3a@4ax.com>

Which is something I've yet to "understand", mind you. I've never been to B&H so I have no idea how different it may be to other camera stores in the states. All I have is some allusion to square footage, but I've not actually seen the store.

Eric Stevens
Did you not look at the video?

Sandman
Nope.

Eric Stevens
You seem to be good at not looking at evidence which threatens your position.

Sandman
What position is that, Eric? Remember, I was talking about Best Buy, but writing B&H instead. So a link was irrelevant to me. It's not like Savageduck was saying that I was wrong and offering up the link to prove me wrong and I ignored it.

Then what else do you think he was doing? What do think everyone else was doing apart from signalling concern that your use of B&H was in some way wrong?

They won't. I didn't "open" it, I am merely responding to their trolling and misinformation.

Eric Stevens
Hah!

Sandman
I think it's kind of sad how you guys will argue for days and days about something so insignificant as me making an error. Are your lives so empty that this is the highlight of several days for you?

Eric Stevens
Yeah. It's all our fault. Maybe you should stop trying to prove we are liars.

Sandman
No need to "prove" anything. I am just responding to your misinformation.
