Xia Qiu, I enjoyed your message particularly your mini-lesson in
Chinese, <<In other words, they are the "xiao ren"
("little people") and you are the "jun zhi" ("gentleman") and in Chinese we say "Jun
zhi bu yu xiao ren dou" ("A gentleman doesn't fight the vagabond").>>

In other words, they are the "xiao ren"
("little people") and you are the "jun zhi" ("gentleman") and in Chinese we say "Jun
zhi bu yu xiao ren dou" ("A gentleman doesn't fight the vagabond").

Very Cool.

Best regards,

John

xia.. I don't know you but I really liked your post to Don.. There was a time I would have needed it myself, but luckily out of 22,000 posts and 2 years on SI and 300 e-mail a day, I've come across only 3 malcontents. The first time I stupidly felt the need to speak in self-defense, the second I was smarter ..and stayed back as others that were annoyed at the 'infiltration' of the thread by miscreants 'defended'...

The third time I smiled, .. went about my business, enjoyed my own success which is what riled them to begin with and totally ignored them. Success always attracts some malcontents to surface.. ignore them and go on because its the silent majority that will support you and break their silence and defend if need be, don't bother to answer yourself at all.

The reason for their attacks were exactly as you stated so eloquently.<<In other words, they are the "xiao ren" ("little people") and you are the "jun zhi" ("gentleman") and in Chinese we say "Jun zhi bu yu xiao ren dou" ("A gentleman doesn't fight the vagabond"). >>>>

Can I reprint it?
