Dear McTim

Please check the sequence of postings: I never replied to Parminder as
you imply, whose posting no doubt are - as you say - "usually quite
reasonable and have content to the point"  I was replying to Suresh's
postings - more to the point, that his appear to make up about half of
the list 's opinion ..... and I doubt that he make up anywhere but the
tiniest percentile of civil society, yet he appears to feel entitle to
comment on everything on this list while far more qualified people
prefer to not participate as they do not feel like being party to this
interminable not-going-anywhere monologue.

So, please, now, once clear as to whom I was referring to, kindly do
confirm whether you would like me to "speak to the point about
excluding people a priori". Again, I am afraid you might not be paying
much atention to the  sequence of postings and are confusing me with
someone else. That not being the case, I am quite willing to respond
to ANYTHING THAT I HAVE OR MIGHT HAVE SAID.

best regards,

Rui
