I've seen flames, and I've also been flamed. I can't say I've read
all of David's postings, but the ones I've seen are nothing like
flamebaits,
For the record, I never suggested that David flames. Rather, based
upon my only (unrequited) exchange with him, I concluded that he
wasn't seriously enquiring and, accordingly, I wondered why people
spent time jousting with him--- which I regarded as a waste of time.
Clearly, many people on the list don't feel this way and enjoy the
repartee. Different strokes.
