I have always thought of you as an especially logical chap, and am
therefore surpisrised at your repeated mireading of my stance.
I have not contended that any of his "statements" are provocative.
I simply contend that his crossposts are unsolicited.
This is sup****ted by objective FACTS, and am at a loss as to why you
have repeatedly misinterpreted my assertion of the plain facts, as
sup****ted by posting logs.
Do you actually understand where I am coming from?
