I can assure you that I didn't scare him off because he already sent me
an email insulting me, rather than asking about how to use a mailing
list.
An attitute is something very arguable. Although I was blunt and
displayed discontentment, I never offended.
As for an insult, well, that's very different.

That's marginally impressive, although I don't see the point in arguing
over semantics. I do own a Webster's dictionary.
I've been communicating via email lists for quite sometime now and I
have seen otherwise productive discussion come unglued over responses
like yours (I've even been responsible for a few of those breakdowns in
the past).
But I'm willing to concede the whole point if you'd like. I'm tired and
have lost interest.
You have my apologies.
