You _deserve_ an answer, even if it costs me _my valuable_ time. I freely admit to being an idiot for ever having taken that up, and taking it up again doesn't make it better: Obviously some insights don't come easier to the recipient if at all when force fed to him. As my last answer before signing off from this thread forever, let me just quote the the part of my mail you so conveniently snipped away: | Overall I think you take all this much too serious. <...> | My suggestion would be, that you calm down and we just forget that | episode. <...> | If on the other side you still think you have an issue with me, I'm | willing to discuss it, but I suggest you write me by personal e-mail | and spare c.l.a. I think that (and your answer to that) says enough. In the meantime I've come to see even the entertainment value of this thread as rather low. As a sparring partner you're sadly lacking in style and are indeed far from being a master of witful repartee. So it's really time to quit now. Still amused -- Markus PS: You were also writing: > I was just giving back the same attitude that I got. I don't > see an apology from him to c.l.a. so I guess being rude is > common here (...) From the context I conclude the "him" must be meaning Ludovic. I note, and would like to point out to you that Ludovic actually apologized to you (a thing I'd never have done in that case). Perhaps you should (apart from learning how to ask questions) also learn how to read usenet.
