Hello, Richard, I have always found you to be a perfectly reasonable man but on this occasion I think you are being unfairly harsh on Mark and his suggestion of a Zoom meeting.
As I read it Mark was being perfectly civil in extending an opportunity for us all here to have a chat and perhaps to get to know each other a little and discuss issues in person rather than just on a list. If I was able to I would have gladly joined the discussion and think it a good idea of Marks. I know it is fashionable to have a go at Mark by some people but I for one appreciate what he does and think he does a good job.
