Is there actually any
way you can have a discussion without getting offensive and out of order?

I agree. After a long, informative, and civilized thread this one went over
the edge from evidence, reason, and substance and into personal attack
through sarcasm. David, can you recognize this line?
Maybe David's post got cut off in my mailbox, but I find nothing
offensive or in the nature of a personal attack. I read that statement
as an indication of his point of view -- that maybe Johannes really did
have a clearer view.
I know that there are times when I read legal decisions made in US
courts that I feel they are totally erroneous and a misreading of the
law and that I have a more accurate view of how things should have been
decided.
I had read David's long and calmly reasoned thread as if he felt the UK
judges were in error in their decision.
I felt he was supporting Johannes' points, that Johannes had made
statements that showed to David that he (Johannes) had a clearer view of
how the law should have been interpreted.
I didn't read anything sarcastic into David's statement, since he had
already made it clear that he disagreed with the UK judges' decisions.
