With respect, I will not engage in further communication on that level.

This is exactly the sort of message that haskell-cafe does not normally
contain. Let's not start now.
This is a civilized mailing list. Either comment on the nice gentlemen's
PHP closure proposal from a language point of view, or don't say anything.
Paul: Uncivilised you say. Well, I would have thought the civilised
thing would be to share your concerns discretely with the list moderator.
Hmm, I wonder who exactly this "list moderator" is supposed to be. We
are usually adult enough around here to not need someone to look after
us. I think Jules was well entitled to raise his objections about the
tone of your email in public.
Paul: As you say, we "are adult enougharound here to not need someone to
look after us". So I don't need you or any other interfearing busybody
to tell me what I can and can't say on Haskell Cafe. I expressed an
opinion in a tongue-in-cheek way and at the end of my message expressed
in clear terms that those were merely my views.
Now, if you, Jules, Alex or some other wannabe Hitler have a problem
with my freedom of expression then your best solution is to saddle up
and get the hell out yourselves. This is the wrong place for setting up
your tinpot dictatorship, Doctor!
I am grateful for the help I've been getting from the list and my
understanding of FP has vastly improved since my membership of this list
but I refuse to tolerate bullies who use the list as a way of lifting
themselves out of their own shitty lives. Now I am angry!
Instead you've chosen to make a public show of it.
The Chinese have a saying, and I paraphrase - when you point the finger
of accusation at someone/something you have three pointing back at
yourself.
Well, at least not this finger...
Paul: you're not making sense.
