Tsk, tsk.  As someone who recently publically castigated someone for
"presuming to speak for Dave Brock," it seems that you, too, are
"presuming to speak" for someone.  Either that, or you are volunteering
to be the mysterious "idiot" in question... ;-)

Any chance this kind of stuff could be resolved off list?  (I guess not,
as apparently at least one side is now programmed to turn a deaf ear.
Open minds, but shut ears.  What a combination...)

Not a flame; I just think the whole thing is amusing.

Cheers,

Paul.
