Incidentally, EmmaB - I wasn't claiming any particular rights in the content of the thread just becoz I had happened to OP it: I was just wondering why you & Ted were so intent on PRESCRIBING & DICTATING to me how I should conduct myself within it, when surely that was something for me, as OP, to judge for myself. No-one still has managed to indicate any regulation or convention or precedent of impartial chairmanship, of 'shepherding of contributors', being required of an OP.

You seem to me to be one of those who delight in turning any thread on which you post snotty and ill-natured: you are deficient in any sort of cordiality or courtesy, but your tone appears to be perpetually truculent & irritable & sarky & snarky. There seem to be rather a lot of such around on Mudcat. I just wonder what satisfaction all of you get in carrying on like that.

Sunshine ...
