My interest in justice has overwhelmed my interest in discretion. I
have followed the present discussion closely and think the above does
not match my experience. Being new here, I have no idea of prior
history. This is the first significant thread I have followed on this
list.

With that caveat I feel compelled to say that in the context of the
current discussion I saw
Arthur ask questions in a straightforward way, and get very little
help and lots of wildly off-topic nitpicking digression laced with
argument from authority and a snarky attitude. I saw nothing of him
attacking any other poster, and think he has been relatively patient
given the tone of the responses.

In the not unlikely event that I stop paying any mind to this list as
a consequence of the present discussion, I feel compelled from a sense
of fairness to say that it will *not* be because of anything I have
seen in Arthur's behavior.
