Gentlefolk, It seems to me, upon a few hours' calm reflection that:
Bert - you leapt to some unfounded conclusions about the significance of Dennis' work and he seems to have been hurt by the way you posed some of your questions. Scott - I don't need to bring the specter of drug abuse and mental incompetency into an argument in order to tell someone that I strongly disagree with them and that their position and demeanor are increasing my frustration. Dennis - in search of a quick defense, you've attempted to give certain critics exactly what they asked for - a Joyride with no activities - in order to let them crack their teeth on the barren fruits of their own uncompromising positions. I would sleep more easily if I knew that the sting of the cutting words previously exchanged in this thread was being soothed by the balm of a short apology from all sides. Also, as a further step to make amends, could each of you please decide to search for less combative ways to express your frustration at revisiting old conflicts? (If I can be of service to you in this matter or in resolving future disagreements, please do not hesitate to contact me.) Respectfully, Michael _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
