converation rather than insults?

I have not slagged you off. AS you may have gathered last night, you have
annoyed me, but I could not be bothered to answer. Next time shut the f**k
up, raher than wittering on so and winding everyone up.

Any time anyone wants a *real* conversation, they are welcome, but I guess
not.
Who the hell are you kidding?

Myself, chiefly. I was expecting him to be some worldly-wise young man
of around my age (judging from the way he writes). When he turned out
to be, well, human, I was pleasantly surprised. (And older... sorry,
Si!) It's all too easy to get completely the wrong impression of
someone in your mind when you've only read his text, and not heard, for
example, how he says it, what he's doing while he says it (eg. picking
wax out of his ear), etc.

Certainly, Simon Richardson was a lot more decent with his flames than
Mr.Pringlespanion, who was just rather unpleasant. (Although I gather
that is the exact point of flames!) Oh, got a problem, have you, Ben?
C'mon then! Outside now, jackets off!

Anyway, have I now united all those who were arguing about whether or
not we should discuss science in our science fiction mailing list? In
their undying hatred of me? That's exactly what I said I would do. Oh
really, it was nothing - I do this kind of thing all the time (by being
myself, mainly).

Are you trying to imply that the above quote ("shut the ...") was
taken from one of my Emails ?
If so then you are mistaken as those were not my words.
I hope you are not trying to claim that my flames are personal
insults and not logical/factual argument as again you are
incorrect.

Please read your Emails more carefully before replying.

As is obvious at he beginning
So
I was referring to the manner in which your flames tend to be far more personal than most that get posted on this list. I was also alluding to
a recent email you sent (which has already been consigned to electronic oblivion and cannot be quoted from directly sorry) in which you used a phrase much like 'I thought that's what flames are for' after Mr Chilard complained about the personal nature of flames received.


BTW nice Oscar Wilde Quote.

[Usual Bollox from Mr. Lythe deleted - I can cope with something difficult
like pressing Ctrl-K a few times, it's tough but somehow I manage...]

[Words of Fine and Worthy Bob removed since not required for understanding
(required 13 uses of Ctrl-K). Maybe deleting some text isn't that hard,
afterall I haven't even broken out into a sweat. Perhaps Mr. Lythe would
be better off put down if he doesn't have the energy to delete text from a
reply to an e-mail.]
If that quote was random Bob, I'm going to church on Sunday.
