You are correct. FWIW - I had just assumed that the Forrest must
have been defective. They have a great reputation, and to me, it is
inarguable that they are a quality product. Most of my thoughts in
my responses, centered around the suggestions that the saw must be
out of tune - since that makes no sense to me if one blade cuts fine
and another does not.

OK, but I surely didn't get the first thought--maybe I didn't read
carefully enough, I don't know...


It's just the nature of a medium like usenet I think. There are generally
multiple thoughts that can be replied to - or multiple aspects of a thought.
It is as clear as day in our mind, as we reply, but does not come across
quite so clear to others when they read it. Either because of they way we
say it, or because of the filter of their own thoughts in the whole thing.

The only thing that really ****es me off when that happens is when the
reader responds with "you said..." and ignores any attempt on your part to
explain what you really meant. No shortage of that kind of thing here.

I appreciate your flexibility in this discourse, especially since it clearly
took a little flexibility on your part to extend that.
