   I think the word "retorted" admirably and objectively described your   
   response to Breton's sensible point.  After all, a personal attack   
   and a highly loaded question are not exactly accepted debating   
   tactics.   
      
   Nor is  quoting and responding only to the first five words of   
   my message taken somewhat out of context - and then ignoring the   
   remaining 98% of the message (269 words) with "Rest snipped".
