Yes, in fact, it was...you know what? You really should just CHILL OUT!
Look at that mail I replied to. It was not all that long. And I kept the
'body' of the previous mail in hopes that the person I was responding to
would know what I'm "huh??" ing about...you can see from the subject
"Odd Jobs" that it was probably drivel and if you had the sense to
complain, you could esily have deleted the mail without reading it! I
admit, the inclusion of Brazil-san sig was a bit unnecessary...for that
I apologise...but I do _not_ apologise for including/quoting and
replying with just "huh??" because it's all I needed to say to convey my
message. And FYI, I regularly snip/trim long messages.

So, leave. You're not obliged to stay.

So talk! I don't see much 'interesting posts' coming from you,
personally...

That's because for your particular 'message' it's irrelevent to quote
anything. You are, after all...merely complaining.

Frankly, Mark...I'm tired of high handed people like you who _think_
they are better than others or more savvy or whatever...granted, this ML
does not stick to Tenchi all the time and at that, is not serious most
of the time...it's meant to be fun? Lighthearted? If you want
intelligent discussion only as, perhaps, befitting your "Super Genius"
status (or so you think) go someplace else. 

I'd never thought I'd get posts like this in this ML...most people here
a civilised, tolerant, good natured and not so stuck up...

Ja!

ps: No, in case you're wondering, I'm not starting a flame war, merely
expressing my feelings on what, IMHO, was an unfair overzealous
exaggeration on Mark's part.
