I'm (sincerely) glad you have some positive experience to share, but you're really being much too generous with regard to this thread. Utterances like "I am willing to overlook the fact that he seriously pissed me off with unkind words and committed a greater faux paus by inviting Lennart Borgman in to merge discussions." or "When I criticized him he is labelling me insulting, patronizing and frustrated. Seriously to how low a level this person has to go." (and many others, as well as the general "everybody except me is an idiot" spirit permeating many of Jambunathan's e-mails) have nothing to do with "concern for the exact meaning" of anything. Such words are not even condescending. They're just insane and for me personally disqualify their originator from any possible collaboration until he comes to his senses again _precisely_ because I value not only basic civity, but also rationality and exactness. --=20 =C5=A0t=C4=9Bp=C3=A1n
