Its o.k., we've already determined that your archive searches are inadequate?
No, WE have not. YOU made that claim, I showed you why you were wrong.

Further, I have done several archive searches in the past and then posted the results, and nobody has ever complained about a search being inadequate. Hell, some of those searches were done at the request of others; why would someone bother to ask for a search if they thought my searches would be inadequate?

Contrary to your beliefs, unilaterally making a claim "your searches are inadequate" does NOT equal "we have determined that your searches are inadequate". "We" have not determined anything about that, and "we" certainly have never agreed on that. So, this is really just yet another case of you making a wild and unwarranted assumption, and then pretending it is fact -- and of course, as usual, not bothering with providing that little detail called proof. Actually, I think you *know* it is only a wild assumption for which you have no proof whatsoever -- because if you *could* back your claim, you would have no reason to NOT reply on-list. The fact that you made your latest statement off-list is a very strong indicator that you know you are wrong, but do not want others to see you are once again make a wild and unwarranted claim.

But hey, you are more than welcome to prove me wrong by searching your private archive and the on-line archives and then quoting the message in which I said "you *never* understand what I mean".

Put up or retract.
