I didn't alter posts. I bolded my responses in in black.

And if I want to reply to what you added to the other person's quoted text I have to not only hit the reply button, but remove your obnoxious emoticons, then go back to find that your additional comments, copy them, and then paste them into my edit window before I can start typing my reply. I know you have mania issue but you smart enough to know that what you're doing is purposeful jackassery so don't tell me you didn't realize.

That's for the ad hominem attack. I'm used to other forum software, and haven't been able to quote without posts. No need to get your panties in a bunch, it's not a big deal seriously. I haven't attacked anybody or anything. This is forum software I'm new to. Not used to vbulletin.

I hope you know, you are going way off topic here and I'm not. I replied to the post and didn't realize it was changed, so don't tell me what I know.

I'm trying to keep from not getting banned again by giving you the benefit of the doubt that trolling is not your intention for being a member. Feel free to prove me wrong, which you are doing by claiming you didn't purposefully start entering text right before [/QUOTE] and didn't also use [/B] markup.

I didn't. I never alter posts. I only add the smiley faces because of the fact that it won't let be post because I see the body.

You shouldn't accuse people of something you don't have evidence of.

Dad's racism is why Steve wasn't compelled to find his father.

That's not quite how it happened. The mother's father forbade the relationship. The baby went up for adoption. The mother's father died soon after and the couple was married, and had a second baby, Mona Simpson. In a few years the mother and father got divorced. If Steve's maternal grandfather had died sooner, Steve (with a different name) would have been raised by his biological mother and lived with his biological sister, but his father probably still would have left the family when the children were little.

Obviously someone read the biography (great book BTW).

Fate affect Steve. Fate. (Or God, or whatever you belive).

Jandali should have been in solidarity with his son, Steve Jobs first. Charity begins at home.

I wonder if he is in contact with Steve's kids after his death. This man should be ashamed of himself.

Assad just doesn't like the fact that Apple chose the name "Siri" instead of "Syria" for the 4GS.

I think he's married at least four times and abandoned Steve *and* his sister as well... According to the biography. Not an upstanding citizen of the community, regardless of whether he's white, black, yellow, brown or whatever.

Sounds like someone is working through their own guilt issues

I hope we are more than the sum of our DNA.

The term "sperm donor" came from Steve Jobs, as related to Walter Isaacson and included in the book. It is how he felt about the man. Abandoned. Unwanted.

I feel bad for all the sperm on the floor out there. Unwanted.

Not sure how it was before the 4S but you can take a video and zap it onto YouTube in the blink of an eye. I can see how that might be disconcerting to certain totalitarian regimes.

Steve was no better.

Jobs had his own illegitimate child, also at the age of 23, he too struggled with his responsibilities. For two years, though already wealthy, he denied paternity while Lisa's mother went on welfare. At one point Jobs even swore in a signed court document that he couldn't be Lisa's father because he was "sterile and infertile, and as a result thereof, did not have the physical capacity to procreate a child."

It was up to Steve to create the solidarity. Steve knew who his biological father was before Jandali knew who Steve was. When Jandali found out about Steve, he tried to reach out to him on numerous occasions (yearly birthday cards), but Steve never responded.

I belive that Mr. Jobs made an apology to his family that he wasn't always there. But that was only on his death bed. Kind of defeats the point, but at least he did eat.

But, like father, like son. It's weird to consider Mr. Jobs Middle-eastern though, but cool.

U.S. courtrooms do the same thing regarding video cameras -- for the same reason. They don't want people to know what goes on in there.
