Do you think I'm the only guy around who doesn't like it when people
spread disinformation about him behind his back? Other than that, do
you think that *I* have any interest in showing up on a webwork list
and arguing about some silly exchange that occured on the velocity
list? Hey, I've got plans and things to do... *you* are the guy who
brought up the subject!

Yes, and you're the one seeming unable to drop it.
<sigh>

Hani, you're pathetic. I can read you like a book. Here's the play:

You post some stuff like you just have, in a deliberate attempt to fan the flames. I rise to the bait. You pompously and pretentiously start talking about what a bad guy I am starting flamewars and so on.

But it's not going to work. This situation is utterly simple. If you don't want me showing up to set the record straight, you shouldn't talk about me behind my back, particularly grotesquely mischaracterizing things that happened. That was a mistake.


Moreover, you mischaracterize something completely, and I respond,
quite politely, and have pointed people to the information they need to
form their own judgment of what happened.

Politely, but at great tedious length.

Now back to our regular programming.
Right. No problem. But you shouldn't have brought up the subject. It
was a very bad idea. <sigh>

I hate to say it, but this perfectly illustrates Rickard's point. 'right, no
problem', yet you had endless opinions/facts/whatever to throw around, without
anything relevant to webwork.
<sigh> Whatever happened on the velocity list is of course off-topic on a webwork list. But I didn't bring it up. How the hell is it *my* fault that this subject is being discussed?


If anything, I'd say you've proven quite admirably
what Rickard was warning against. All rather amusing.
Look, people started talking about me and I simply pointed out a link and stated that if anybody wanted to know what really happened, they could refer to that.

But here are 2 suggestions if you truly do find this thread tedious and off-topic (as I surely do) :

1. Blame the person who brought up the tedious off-topic stuff. (Not me.)

2. Do not contribute to said thread yourself.

I'm going to unsubscribe from this list now. I don't have time for this kind of hypocritical bad-faithed stuff and I don't have time to play these kinds of childish games you're trying to engage me in. It bores me, it's too transparently obvious.... all this... SHIT.

Bye now,

Jonathan Revusky
