Hi, I completly agree with Denys's point and do well understand Wayne's decision.
I just returened from switzerland for a weekend at home and have read through many of this mails. Funnily there also are some arguments by MO hidden between all of his insults. If he only could leave all those insults I would be happy to read and to participate in fruitfull discussions with him ... But the way he is MO was the first (of two) persons on this list whose mails I am filtering directly to the trash bin of my email client. Best wishes Thomas Am Samstag, 27.
