Ahh, right, OK guys, points noted. I do note quite a few chaps interested in this.
Look, as you may have guessed, I concede, I am a bit "fussy" or if you want the technical word, "obsessional" (personality) - I can't stand things to be other than absolutely
correct in every detail, so what is actually holding me back is that I wish to lay it all out nicely from the photo-sharing site with links to it here. One - admittedly little - detail is that this site here had to do an "upgrade" to its running forum software a while back for security reasons - a perfectly reasonable thing to do - but in the process mangled the formatting commands and despite my gentle pleading (what can I say? - I am not paying them for being here!), have not yet fixed the scripting. Note that the
old posts are quite fine, but anything I post at present has problems.
Yes, it's a little point to be sure, but it just gets my goat. When I re-post the pictures, I want them to be neatly laid out with commentary (my commentary, actually
), "ready-to-use" without anyone having to unzip them and such. The whole concept of this forum is that we are not just helping one person at a time - not that we don't wish to of course - but providing ready, didactic information which people can find here without
needing to ask questions (thus the recurrent "
Have you read the thread fully, and read it over at least five times?" and "
Have you read all of the the last fifty threads?" theme) and presuming (hoping) that there are dozens or hundreds who read the information, assimilate it, act on it, are "cured" and disappear "into the smoke".
And there are other matters. My anonymity is for this purpose, important. {Why is it so important? Because this topic is actually extremely "political"; telling people they are fools for justifying circumcision of themselves, their children, their victims - notwithstanding the truth of the observation - could be a very dangerous thing as I am sure you can understand.} Even interacting with the forum here risks compromise to my anonymity and we are aware of people who might well delight to embarrass me if given half a chance, so I
do have to be careful in the detail of depositing files on other sites, which is also why I am singularly reluctant to e-mail the files.
And I have a couple of other matters to sort out. I recently upgraded my machine here and have not fully sorted out the transfer of the filesystem, mail client and such. I use a particular system with a brilliant predictive spell-checker ("aspell" I think) though this version is not as good as the previous and is still missing an important feature ("Replace all"!). And I have - I hope temporarily - lost access to the mail account that is referenced against my posts here.
So, I agree, it
might seem just as easy to "get a move on" and lodge the files where I was originally going to. It might just
be that easy, but when I tried at first there was a problem and I don't even recall what. I stand chastised - I will see what I can do. Unfortunately it is the same reply my secretaries are giving to a number of lawyers wanting reports ...
As to giving information to the urologist; I find that slightly farcical. Certainly a urologist
could do the tying, but surely he (she?) would
already know exactly how to do it. I realise (have just now been listening to
a TV program on it) that health care in the US is a total shambles, but to my mind that is obscene overkill - the procedure could be performed by any GP with minimal surgical expertise, in the office with next to no equipment, half a ml (millilitre) of local anaesthetic (or Emla®) and in less that five minutes. And with the exception of my local urologists (whom I
do trust
), I would be very concerned about a urologist doing anything!
