While I don't deny I was "a bit harsh," I wasn't the only person he was
addressing.  In fact, I noticed a few other people were "a bit harsh" as
well -- with less technical filler too.

But just assume he was talking about only me.  The fact that some people
assume I'm the "only bad guy" in a thread is nothing new to me.  I don't
mind at all.  I'm used to being the "scape goat."

I don't get upset.  I just state my _opinion_ and move on.
