Claudio,

I am trying to understand the context in which you wrote your long response
to my one liner.

It named me explicitly and expressed surprise at my sentiment. I am unable
to comprehend how you determined so much from so little.

It was intended as a supportive murmur to Helen who was under some attack. I
seem to sleep as little as Helen based on our posts so forgive me if it was
a little cryptic.

> Then, how do I have to interpret your "Insert meaningful glance" here?

See above.

> Do you agree with the phrase you quoted,

No. Although I prefer a more consultative approach, I would not describe
Helen as she was described by Robert.

I have stated previously that I think Marcus has some very valid points. I
also asked that he showed more respect when expressing them. I used Helen as
a specific example of a person here who had a history of service to this
community and who particularly deserved respect (I believe I used the term
brownie points).

So from my perspective I have no idea how to respond to you Claudio, except
by trying to better understand what yours is. That is why I asked the
question I asked. I quoted the rest of your piece because I sent before I
thought, for which I apologise.

In any case if we all try to see things from each others perspective a bit
more, and assume a bit less, I'm sure we can all have plenty of productive
'stouches' in IBDI in the future.

Cheers
Adam (confused, but trying).
