Xah - do we ALL have to read another one of these rude and
intimidating mails? Did Tim really call you a scumbag? Looking back at
the original thread, it does seem that the OP's thread had indeed been
forgotten, so he did have a point, don't you think?

The above mail on the other hand had nothing to do with Emacs, and I
am seriously thinking of quitting this mailing list as a result of
such unpleasant hate-filled emails. I don't want to read this sort of
email and get worked up as a consequence, it is just not worth
it. Yes, you are a good contributor to the list and are generally very
helpful to most posters, but this sort of correspondence we can do
without. There do need to be moderators on this list.
