Miss understanding

My "Cold War" thread just got closed because of a missunderstanding. The common thought was that I was trying to get you (the AF community) to do my homework. That is very not true. I wrote those questions. The assignment was to write 10 questions then interview as many people as I could with a minimum of one interview. So I figured that since AF is viewed around the world I could get some good answers. See I wasn't trying to get people to do my homework. I would've put this in the Cold War thread, but someone locked it (mmmhmmm moderators). If I wasted your time, here is my insincerest appology. Sorry.

When I was in school, we used to get off our asses and go out and find people to interview....not sit at the PC and type our question on the internet and hope somebody answers.
You have not gone 'above and beyond', you're sitting on the internet enjoying yourself while you wait for the answers to deliver themselves to you.
You may not have been born, but your parents were, so were a lot of your neighbours, did you go around and ask them about their childhood which was during the cold war?

Come on reakray, give him a break. I'd help ya man, but I'm only 18. I got a lot of info from Raz and other people because of the internet for my essay. It was on health insurance, everywhere else is different than the US with this. He has a legite point, AF is a world community and we keep those stupid math questions alive.
Something better Skyline, PM people or IM some of these guys.

If you consider, I am giving him a break, this thread is still open isn't it ;)
How many members of AF are old enough to have any idea that they were even living in the cold war era though?

hey moron, stop lecturing everyone else for their grammar when your own freakin' thread title is "MISS UNDERSTANDING".
Way to go, genius. We all bow before your majesty.

I wouldnt respect anyone that quotes tftf, plus I don't see why you would ask this on a car forum.

That's OK mate, I had a quick browse through that thread. I introduced myself to Miss Understanding and she sorted the whole mess out. Are you sure it's very not true, or is it simply not true? As for that insincere apology, it's whole heartedly accepted.
I almost believe you did write those ten questions. Then again, I'm pretty gullible. So they told you you had to ask at LEAST one person about the cold war, but really you can ask as many as you wanted, so you aspired to the dizzying heights of one?
its due tomorrow and i have the minumum but i strive for excellence. lol
You sound like such a go getter. Has your Dad ever told you he reckons you could be president one day? I'm almost inclined to agree with him these days.

Seriously, you don't expect us to do your assignment for you because you have racist parents, do you? No one at automotiveforums.com can really be held accountable for the lack of ethnic diversity in your neighbourhood. That's simply not fair.
Thanks for that bit of learnin' about them run-on sentences. I've only ever really jogged on.

lol sorry guys i feel like an ass, I just noticed that MISS thing. I totally missed it. About the run on thing i was pissed at freakray and was acting out of anger. As for the rascist thing that was uncalled for. I also never blamed AF. I don't live with my dad, and i don't want to be president. You guys still aren't grasping the whole interview thing isn't you doing my project for me. It doens't matter, I presented today and did just fine with my presentation. This is also the Off Topic forum where it says talk about anything other than cars. So I did a good presentation , I hated Road House, lets all just be friends. Many of you are cool guys/gals thats love cars like me, so lets drop this and go talk about camshafts and pistons (shout out to my Cannibal Run guys). I apologize to you guys and I hope you too can be bigger men and all make amends.
