Hello Bernard,

I can understand your feelings.  My response was measured from the start of the subject matter, which, admittedly, was a different
thread on this list.  It did not start out well to say the least.  Clearly, this matter is a touchy subject from another list with a
history all its own.  As such bringing it to another list is not good etiquette, especially when it is off topic on this list.
