Our friend Res has been known to have a less than civil tounge (not
that I think it's that bad this time:-), from time to time:-). And
some pretty strong views:-):-). Don't let it get to you;-). We're all
entiteled to our own opinions.

Good.
I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of this, with the usual (-ly) nice
open discussion that is the hallmark of this list.

That would (if my memory serves me right) be a loss on all parts.
Please reconsider your position (We're usually a pretty easygoing and
helpful bunch:-).
What usually riles at least a few participants are things like
top-posting, not trimming and thread-breaking/hijacking... And
possibly just yacking about unrelated stuff, although this list
(thanks to the forgiving nature of Jules etc) is more forgiving to
such transgressions than is the norm for specialised mailing-lists.

That you (due to whatever reason) seemed to be thread-hijacking
prompted the first few messages to that effect. Taken all together,
they might well have been a tad much, I'll give you that. And I for
one beleive you when you say that you did no such thing intentionally.

If it happens again (spontaneously hijacking a thread through no
action of yours) one should perhaps look at what could be causing it.
Other than that, why not just move on to the next question? We'll be
happy to have you around;)
