You said it was thinner, but it is really 20 percent thicker. A simple fact that could be looked up. I looked it up. You just insisted that I must be wrong. Now you try to dismiss it as irrelevant. It is not irrelevant. Not because of the dimension, but because of the atmosphere it creates on the list. I would not belabor the point except for the days of attacks, disinformation, name calling, rude language, and other abuse heaped on me. Instead of responding with facts and logic the response of many (but not all) was just a bald assertion repeated over and over that I was wrong. Acting badly instead of getting the facts right and making a logical case for one's contrary opinion is disrespectful of all the list members. Yes, I make my points strongly. Yes, I may be snarky about it. But I am careful to get my facts straight and to provide explainations and supporting examples. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
