I think we've isolated the issue right there.
If you look over the history of this list, you can find that this
represents their MO. If you keep that in mind as you
read/write/post/respond, you will have a better sense as to whom to
respond to and ask questions of, and listen to.
I don't have time for net.arguments, so I largely ignore people whom are
best not responded to.
Eric and Dave are giving you good advice and information. It behooves
you to listen to that.
But as Dave pointed out, some time away from this, to let emotional
levels drop, and then a judicious application of filtration is well
worth your time.
