Navydad, your posts lose a lot of their effectivness because you're not using the quote function.  Just hit the little word "quote" in the upper right of the box of the post you want to quote.

Try it, it's easy!

I agree.  Fora flirting is most effective when properly formatted.

See?  There's that fine mind (which, I am sure, is housed within an equally fine body).

If I said you had a fine body, would you hold it against me?

No, I'd suggest you visit an opthalmologist.

So, Polly is female, young (or at least younger than me), and unavailable for hookup. But is she hot? (see, I got back on topic) And where is she located? (region is acceptable).

If the answer to the hot question is yes, then on with the flirting. The unavailable part is moot because my wife is Italian and she grew up in West Philly. I value my body parts and my life.

I am hot, as those who saw me just last week at a meet-up in Pittsburgh can testify, and currently in Appalachia within close enough drive to West Philly to get that reference.

Oh, Navydad, you make me laugh and that's pretty attractive in a man, especially that older, distinguished type.

Use the preview button to check that the quotes are right before you post.  You need to leave the [ quote author] junk intact along with the [ /quote] parts and make sure that you have equal numbers of both.

It's just a formula so you can do anything you like with it

Yup. In the real world flirting has a lot to do with eye contact and I don't know how to translate that into squiggles on a screen. Although Polly, who apparently is hot, keeps responding, she has complimented me, and she has offered me help. So maybe I'm not as bad at it as it appears.

I have a soft spot for technical people who at least try because those are my peeps (yes, I'm an engineer who works in polymers).  Many of them find it easier to flirt online because of the lowered pressure to maintain eye contact and the ability to edit a witty remark until it sings.  I know that's what has helped me.

You might be interested in this article, the topic of which was discussed in Meet and Greet at one point to the glee of many technical people here.

Confused and sad. Or happy. I'm not sure...

Navydad,

You can check out Polly here: http://s824.photobucket.com/albums/zz163/deptGeek/CHE%20Meetup%20Pittsburgh%20Aug%204%202010/?action=view&current=IMGP1705.jpg
She's in the back row, second from the left.

Her hubby is pretty hot, too. http://s847.photobucket.com/albums/ab37/BioteacherCHE/CHE%20Pgh%20Meetup/?action=view&current=IMG_4116.jpg Frankly, I don't think Polly is going to leave him. You don't have to worry about losing body parts.
