I resent the implication, as would anyone who has tried to contribute
something to the network.

The thought might cross your mind that *you* have failed to stick to
technical issues.

The thought might cross your mind that I am sick of how you repeatedly
pervert the issues at hand.

The thought might cross your mind that your perversions depend heavily
on the way that you can misparaphrase and misquote previous articles,
and that in a technical thread, perhaps such paraphrases would stick out
as personal attacks.

The thought might even cross your mind that I am trying to improve the
quality of this group.

I resent that statement. I also hope that you will participate in the
Technical threads without violating their spirit.
