Hmm, let's see... In your third message you accused Bare Bones of being
"sneaky, pure and simple". A few messages later this escalated to "sleazy",
and ultimately to "Why the dishonesty?" Note that you were the first person
to use all of these phrases. You may perhaps consider that you were accusing
the company and not the people who work there, but that's rubbish: it was
the *people* who work there who made the decision, not some nebulous
"company".

In other words, those *were* personal attacks against the folks who work at
Bare Bones, *whether you intended it or not*. I'm not at all surprised by
the response from the list, nor that there's been no traffic from Bare Bones
recently (not that there really needed to be anyway, they'd already said
their piece). If it was me I'd be pretty damn steamed at being called
sneaky, sleazy and dishonest, even if it was true.

Whatever. I'm going to ignore the list for the next few days I think...
