Yes I am, and that is why I did it.

The timestamps of the messages show that I had posted the output 12
minutes before you posted your message claiming that I had not.

That you had emphatically made the point that I had not answered the
question put to me, was provocative, in itself, apart from the claim
being, to put it euphemistically, wrong.

When you wrote your message, twelve minutes after I had posted my
message, unless it took you the twelve minutes to write your message,
you should have had my message, visible.

The frustrations involved in trying to solve a bewildering problem,
are not helped when people make emphatic provocative claims, that are
false, as you did.

If you had more properly made no comment about your perception that I
could not be bothered answering the question put to me, rather than
emphatically making the point that I could not be bothered dealing
with the question, when, in fact, I had responded to the question, the
ill-will would not have been created.

Such action is not conducive to goodwill on problem solving (or
otherwise) mailing lists.

It belongs more in the office where a person goes to buy an argument.
