I am asking YOU, plutarch, and no-one else

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, you have asked, Rubrick, and now for the 3rd time, I have agreed.

But, I have also said, and I do not need your blessing to say it: what is good for the goose is good for the gander.

I would not want to give anyone false hope that my commitment to reasonableness, which has always been my first choice, is unilateral.

If you want me to go over this again, then I will. But I think I have made myself clear enough to the few who have engendered the hostility to which you refer.

Since you are not one of those few, I have no reason to continue this with you.

Perhaps we can all have some peace around here now.

I feel no less entitled to it than you do.
