I did not ask you for an apology. I did not even insist that you did something wrong. I said that offending people goes with the territory, particularly with such a view as you hold, which is undeniable. That some, being thus offended, might lose their cool also goes with the territory. Given that, and the fact that Zoltan and I have a prior relationship that is cordial, was reason enough for me to hesitate to intervene, and to soften the tone of the intervention. On the other hand, I did intervene, because it seemed to me that he had pushed things past a limit. I have never said that serious discussion should give no offense. I have said that one should not be surprised when it does, which is why some flexibility is required, and why I do not mind the hockey threads.....
