Well, you are plain wrong. I did read all of the thread (thoa I can't say that
I have read every thread where Scott and Larry have squared off). I almost
always read entire threads, because reading one message most of the time does
not give much context at all. Did I understand the issue? I think I did, and
that is all that matters. Apparently, you think I did not, but that is your
opinion. Rather, you would prefer to spout it as fact.
As far as netiquette is concerned, you seem to be referring to your own
personal set of rules. I don't think I have been rude to anyone, including
you. I don't think I have ever posted inflammatory remarks to this body, but
rather my thought out opinions. The fact that you do not agree with them, or
their timing does not make them inflammatory.

My only knowledge comes from reading the posts on Lugnet. I do not know any of
the parties personally. So, if by your guarantee, you mean that I can't know
what is going on from the posts, then maybe those people shouldn't be posting
their war on Lugnet. (I believe that was my original opinion.) Do I care to
be informed? Of course. Am I going to email or call everyone involved
personally before I post a message to a newsgroup? Be serious. I have
opinions based on what is posted here. That is how this discussion is run.
How else can it exist?
Or maybe you didn't mean that. Maybe you were simply being inflammatory
yourself. I have suspected that from the beginning. I will give you the
benefit of the doubt here, because it can be difficult to tell via posts and
email. But if there is a netiquette violation, then I suspect your posts could
qualify.
