Why are you directing this at me? I made no comment on her passing other than it should be a wake up call for people to get THEIR act together to avoid this kind of sad mess.

You are assuming I think it was OK to starve this woman to death. I have not opined on that at all.

I looked at the post you replied to (#126). It wasn’t directed at you. It was directed at the person who made post #126, freedumb2003. Metmom gave you a courtesy ping, because the post she was replying to was directed at you.

This post is directed at Vermont Lt. I’ve given a courtesy ping to Metmom and freedumb2003.

It wasn’t directed at you. It was directed at the first name in the *To* field. I just courtesy pinged you to let you know that I was responding to another’s comment to you.

It’s my understanding that generally, the first name is who the comment is directed to, and the other names are courtesy pings wither because they were mentioned by name, or the poster thought the person might have some interest in the comment.

Also, the comment in italics wasn’t yours, so that’s another way of knowing who the comment was addressed to.

My point to the other FReeper was that Terri did not *pass* which usually implies dying of natural causes, not as a result of being starved and dehydrated to death on a judge’s order as desired by the unfaithful spouse.
