I can always filter your posts Patrick.  I don't find them that
enlightening that I need to read any of them.  But I do try to be polite
and respond to others wishes, something you may benefit from following.

As you have now unsubscribed to the list I will send a copy to your
personal address.

Not rot at all, for someone with your stated education and background
you seem to have some trouble with a few definitions within context.
But be that as it may, it is of no interest to me although I'm sure it
is to the people who made the bet.

I stated I considered his behaviour in unsubscribing was IMHO petulant
and that I had some doubts as to his professionalism.  Fair comment I
would say given his last few posts.  I did not call him any names.
There is a big difference.  But you ignored his comments and focused on
mine, why?  It was not me who introduced the personal element.

No that is not a professional approach.  How is ignoring an issue of any
benefit to anyone.  You unsubscribed due to your own agenda as has
Peter.  Nothing to do with the list behaviour or any professional
interest.  At the most, it is to protect yourself and not AuDA or the
mailing list.

Normally I wouldn't continue with a discussion such as this on the
mailing list but as you are a Director of AuDA, I do consider it on
topic.

BTW...I'm not out to get you Patrick or anyone else, nor am I
participating on this list to be disruptive.  However, it is my right to
state my opinions and respond to comments about myself.
