   I didn't engage with the first two stones you threw today, and I'm not   
   going to engage with the personal remarks above as your third stone.   
      
   My participation here has always been driven by a genuine interest in the   
   subject matter, and over the years I've contributed a substantial amount of   
   technical detail, explanations, and problem-solving that many others have   
   found useful.   
      
   If you disagree with something specific, I'm always open to discussing the   
   facts, but I'm not going to follow you into personal attacks since I   
   genuinely feel that you and Chris own the ability to uplift this newsgroup.   
      
   And as for the 'show me' observation, I provide cites for my facts, and   
   likewise, I simply ask for at least a single reliable citation for yours.   
      
   That's not a 'rabbit hole'. That's basic accountability.
