I think you misunderstand. Charles was actually paying you a partial 
compliment. He was not saying that your response was abusive. He was 
saying that you actually seem to have a clue most of the time.

FWIW I agree on both counts. You tend to get abusive sometimes, but 
your technical accuracy is very good.

The idea that abuse is "well deserved" could be the origin of your 
difficulty in fitting in with online technical communities. There's 
really nothing worth getting angry over. If I think someone has been 
rude to me, my best response is no response.

I haven't seen that from you. You never let anything pass. You'll 
probably ignore my Reply-To: header and reply to this.

Yes, that is obvious. You have a lot to contribute. Too bad we can 
only get that at a price that many posters consider too high.

Sincere best wishes to you. EOT.
