eek! That was an edit was I hope to forget. It was impressive the way
Vera managed to shift the focus each time.

There's been criticism of 172, but I thought his/her suggestion on
[[Talk:New Imperialism]] for both 172 and Vera to stop work on the
article was made in good faith. It's a pity that vera Cruz misunderstood
-- wilfully or not I don't know. I tried to give the benefit of the
doubt and got dragged into get more incomprehensible debate.
I can never work out if Vera does this deliberately, or has some sort of
behavioural problem.
Either way, I'm fed up.
I suport a ban.
