I'm getting dupes of his messages, and didn't notice it til I got called mistaken and stupid. Personally, I reply only to the mailing list, which is getting harder and harder as time goes on. But by replying only to the mailing list, I guarantee nobody gets dupes of my messages, and therefore nobody is called stupid and mistaken.

Re: Metadiscussion
Hi Wolfgang, as you can see it is our own mistake and stupidity if we get Dr. Lisse's messages twice. The good thing is he enjoys this 'metadiscussion' - thanks God, so our stupidity isn't just for nothing! By the way, we did not invite anybody to enter a discussion, we were just wondering and giving opinions. However, there is his statement about this 'duplicate remover extension in his T-Bird which works quite well' as he says. I think I have to get new glasses. Alternatively we could trigger a discussion on the term 'quite well'.

As much as I enjoy a metadiscussion I have a duplicate remover extension in my T-Bird, which works quite well. greetings, el On 23/04/2018 15:59, Michael Berger wrote: No Wolfgang, you are not.
