Larry,

You know better than that. In any event you've raised your hell and
gotten your answer, both from Jimmy Wales and the Wikipedia community.
There has to be an end to any fuss. This list is for discussion of the
English Wikipedia. Given Jimmy Wales's reluctance to engage you and the
rejection by the community in general of your assertions, it is time to
drop those issues with respect to this list.

"Never wrestle with a pig: You both get all dirty, and the pig likes it."
And I'm NOT talking about YOU liking it.
