You are welcome to discuss whatever you want - and of course, you are able
to judge the demerits and merits of whining to the other person's
superiors at any time you want.

And I have no wish to listen to more of your long winded rants on the list
- so feel free to do whatever you please offlist, and spare tehse other
people your petty quarrels.

I, for one, would have taken this offline long back, except, that I dont
like talking to /dev/null which is what would happen if I mailed you
offlist.

Now, goodbye.
