nevercrosses,
This may surprise you, but I have enjoyed the learning process my whole life. Hopefully, that enjoyment will continue . . . at least for a while yet!
You also are on that path. I see that and appreciate it. Maybe someday we will meet, smile and shake hands and perhaps even get a chance to share our varied experiences over a glass of "something". I would like that.
Today, in another thread, I read your lengthy and well-reasoned post with its terrific visuals illustrating your points. I got your message right away. Wonderful!
Your core question:
"Why two Plane Lines? More specifically, why the
Chord Plane Line (and not the
Tangent)?".
I answered your question -- succinctly and correctly. As a result, you know more about golf this evening than you knew this morning. And that's a good thing.
Why has this happened?
Because I took the time to read your post, digest your thoughts and respond. I knew my knowledge would be valuable to you. Now, you know, too. At least I think you do. In any event,
that's why I did it: To help you along the way.
But, with your quoted response, you do not
thank me for your new knowledge.
Nor do you
credit me for passing it along.
Heck, you don't even
acknowledge it.
Hey, no problem!
Somewhere, sometime that may happen.
But not today.
Today that realization is a bit too painful, and I understand that.
Here's my 'rub':
Today you sarcastically write me off as someone living in a Dark Age. Someone who needs only to understand the D-Plane to make golf make sense. Someone who has had the whole thing 'bass-ackwards' all these years . . . and didn't even know it.
Shame on you, nevercrosses.
I deserved better.
Or maybe not!
