Are you denying that that is your post? If so then whose was it?

If you are so smart, figure it out. It is not mine. Re-read the thread

I've re-read it until I'm blue in the face. According to the headers
on the message you posted it. According to Google Groups you posted
it. If you didn't post it then please explain why your headers are on
it.

Are you asserting that "any of them can" can be interpreted in any
manner other than to indicate that any wood on either of those lists
can kill due to toxicity when used n a cutting board? If so please be
kind enough to explain this alternative interpretation.

Or are you saying that "any of them can" is negated by "I did not say
they would kill"? If so then you are contradicting yourself in a
single paragraph. Either they can or they can't, so which is it?

Any wood, or for that matter, most any substance can kill a few very
sensitive people.

And you know of an instance in which someone has been killed as a
result of food coming into contact with a maple cutting board?

Rare, but talk to an allergist about it. BUT, I did not
say these woods are toxic.

No, you said that any of them could kill when used in a cutting board.

I just posted the information. I did not say
these woods can kill in a cutting board, nor did the listings.

Yes, you did. I'm not going to repost the message _again_.

The list
says nothing about cutting boards, but does mention dust and direct
exposure.

Since the topic of the thread is wood for a cutting board, and since
the question to which you responded asked specifically about cutting
boards, and since you stated "any of them can", the content of the
_list_ is irrelevant to your response.

As I said, I posted information for others to interpret, with no
comments as shown in the re-print of the entire post. You have a difficult
time with that, it seems.

So "any of them can" is not a "comment"? Then what is is?

Why not just go back, read the entire thread and stop making a fool of
yourself. You look silly with egg on your face.

Why not just back down gracefully on your "any of them can"?

You keep saying "reread the thread" and yet you won't even read the
copy of your statement and its immediate antecedent that were posted
in the message to which you were responding. Pot, kettle.
