Quite. Those on the list who know me and my writing I think would agree
that I do not make ad hom attacks unless attacked first. I do go after
ideas I really disagree with virulently if I consider them to be of
importance, but I'd challenge anyone to show any point where I made
personal attacks unprovoked by similar personal insults... Samantha has
been one of those who has made such attacks.
