Oh, Anthony, do be a dear and shut up, please. It's not amusing, it's 
/certainly/ not mature, and it's becoming increasingly irritating for 
you to continue to post to the lists in the current fashion.

Feel free to count me as someone "other than [Jimbo]" who is bothered by 
it. Half the time you provide constructive criticism - and that is of 
course welcomed - but, well, really... If you can't tell when you cross 
the line into massive assumptions of bad faith, seemingly-deliberate 
poor assumptions, and, essentially, "trolling", then maybe it would be 
for the best if you were no longer to post here.

Note: In normal circumstances, this would of course be sent privately in 
order to avoid the blushes of the recipient. However, in this situation 
all that would lead to is Anthony making veiled comments about such a 
missive, ones that wouldn't exactly ring true with what I had said.

Yours sincerely,
