  Then what's this, if not an answer?

  Heh.  Alejandro sent me a sarcastic off-list email, the gist of which was
that comments about "remedial english lessons" are sensible and helpful
contributions to the list, but anything that I say is sarcasm, bad and
wrong.  I sent a private reply back to him, but tricked him into thinking I
had Cc'd the list with a reply that quoted his private mail.  Hence this
little emotional outburst.

 IJM.

  You don't know what that word means, or you wouldn't have used it there.
I still think you aren't in any position to offer remedial english lessons
to anyone.

  I have no problem with that.  I won't even reply to your public mails
anymore either; for the sake of peace and quiet on the list I'll just put
you straight into my kf.  HTH.

    cheers,
