Hmm.  Let's see if I can respond to this without questioning *your*
mental state.

It's going to be very hard but I will try.

Ya see, Gary.  I haven't been responding to you for years but you've
been calling me names in email every few months.  Sometimes you respond
to something I've said.  Sometimes you you feel the need to comment on
what you think I'm going to do.  Sometimes you speculate that you've
done something to change my behavior.

You did all this while I was almost completely silent.  That led me to
believe that you were desperately hoping for some contact with me.  I
can see that I must have been somewhat right given the length of your
reply.

Anyway, I'm glad I've finally given your urges some tangible outlet.
