That's nearly a Haiku:
Once out of accord,
I still want them to exist.
Just demanding peace.

I was rather uninspired the last time I had to set one, but anyway. Or maybe that's hubris talking...

Not sure who should get this (Sandeep and yacCarsten sent emails before but appear to have deleted the messages) so you are up tomorrow!

My plan was to wait till 15 min before 4 hour window as it would be tight for me to post in time tomorrow. I will be out to close few of the outside work tomorrow.
BTW, two things threw me of:
Demanding money & Ex as Late - I shared both with you in my response above :P

Yeah, but I don't do hints!

This is not about hints.. this is about your clues throwing off the right direction. 
I was still sure based on other things connecting.

Apologies, I posted an answer and was feeling pretty pleased with myself, when I immediately had an Oh-No moment.
I'm taking the wife out for her birthday tonight. I didn't want to have to explain to her that I couldn't because I had to stay home and post today's CCC.

'money' was throwing me off. I'd already got 'exacting' as a possible (synonym for demanding), but couldn't figure out where money came into it!

Hence my response to OG that ... it could be anything just not money

I was visiting my siblings and the nephew today.
I learned a valuable lesson. Never argue with a 3 three year old over whether something is pterodactyl or a pteranodon - they know dinosaurs better than you.

Sh*t. What does the email button do? I think I just used it.
So I said, dinosaurs are knowledge that largely does not benefit society and only resides in the young.
I also noted I wish I had young nieces and nephews.

It just sent me a private email is all. Worst thing that happens is I have your email addy now. The one you registered with your codeproject account anyway.
Don't worry. I won't sell it to spammers.

HAHAHAA!!! Well, there are gangs who stalked and threatened to kill my kids, but I think they worked out what my email was long ago. They certainly had my address and plastered it all over the internet.
|
|
|
|
|
OMG I'm so sorry!
Well I've already deleted the email. The only place i have your address anymore is in my lil noggin because it's easy to remember.
Your secret is safe with me.

It's not that bad any more, no death threats except off the cuff ones for at least 2 years I reckon.

I have cousins that live not too far away from you. I have always assumed it is one of those peaceful havens where nothing untoward ever happens; apart from too much rain once in a while.

The death threats were all online, no one ever came. Australia has it's own lunatic fringe but it's not America

If nothing else Christian's legendary rants about Telestra's suckage back in the day should've disabused you of that.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yes, but Telestra is nationwide, not just his locality.

Which would mean nowhere in Australia is a peaceful haven; and not just because of the dropbears eating peoples heads unless they glue plastic sporks behind their ears with vegamite.

A risk I took the time I visited as well.

Well there sounds like a great story there. Let’s here it!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

The death threats? I got involved in helping refugees, right wing people hate refugees, I would try to correct their lies on FB so they started stalking me and eventually made a ton of videos about me and would call at 3 am to threaten my kids.
Google my name to find a ton of entries on 'cheater' websites and some fun lying videos
Useful if you ever want to visit, they mostly have my address

I don't know either - so I surely wouldn't.
