Ok, so now Ken has chosen to make my private mail public. I tred to 
spare the list another trail of off-topic content, but apparently this 
is not possible.

My opinion:

Messages like Ken's do not contribute constructively to the save and 
export change, especially the part where claims are made regarding a 
message recipient's state of mind.

I tried to base my mail solely on the mail I was replying to, which is 
merely an attempt to win newcomers to one side of the argument without 
any constructive criticism an the part of its author.

I don't see my mail as an example for the messages Ken is referring to 
in his original message.
