I feel so honored to be so loved. I'm shedding a tear here as I type this
response. Thanks for keeping me in your thoughts 24 h/day, sorry if I
don't return the favor.

No - I'm suggesting that you (and Steven Humphreys) have made your point
now, and continually ganging up on this particular individual with the
aid of Steven Humphreys is starting to smack of boring, ignorant
bullying.
OK. He doesn't share the same viewpoint as you on this particular
matter. That, believe it or not Jim, is allowed. You have made your
point forcefully several times.
Let's drop it now, eh? And move on. That'd be nice.
If you don't want this discussion to continue, why did you post a private
email I sent to only you back into the public forum? Since you choose to
do that, I will respond publicly.
I agree that Daniel is entitled to his viewpoint, as ignorant as I think
it is. However, that does not mean he is entitled to spew it without
response from people who disagree with him.
Since I don't believe this forum should be used to spread bigotry and
ignorance, and since I believe that is Daniel's primary contribution here,
I will continue to respond to him.
Or would you prefer that Stephen Humphreys and I ignore Daniel so that new
members to the forum to think Daniel is representative of us all? Or do
you not agree with Humphreys' point that Daniel is more damaging than
helpful to metrication? (A particularly interesting point given that
Humphreys is not pro-metric.)
