Sometimes I agreed with you (generally on the issues of GPL), other times I disagreed (such as with your ideas about PR). I always treated you with respect, while others were telling me I was wasting my time on you. I was NEVER rude to you. However, I am concerned that you keep repeating the exact same ideas in the exact same words after having clearly seen that you are not convincing anyone. Hence my question. I believe your discusion would be more effective and more persuasive if you tried different arguments or different angles of the same argument. As for your snapping at me like that, you have just reminded me of the words of, I believe, St. Theresa of Avilla to the Pope of her era: "If this is how you treat your friends, no wonder you have so many enemies."
