I see you chose to make your post to me publicly instead of privately, so I will respond publicly.

I'm sorry if I make you uncomfortable. I suggest you return to taking advantage of the Ignore feature, as you have in the past, so you won't be bothered by my postings. As you also know, you have your own thread where you have banned me from posting, and at least one friend of yours has a thread where you have persuaded her to ban me from posting also. So there are plenty of ways for you to avoid any interaction with me if that is your personal need.

There are times when you say things in posts that I feel it is is appropriate to comment on. I am unwilling to give you free rein to say things that I feel need to be clarified or challenged, and to promise in advance not to inject my views on them. Sometimes letting things stand as public postings without refutation can be considered tanamount to agreeing with them, and your request that I do so makes me uncomfortable. So as long as you choose to post on public issues in forums where my particpation is welcomed, I must decline your request, but must preserve my right to express my opinions and views on such issues.
