I've asked you several times about the reason for the exclusion of game results. You've said that you checked the games and haven't stated that anything was wrong. There were a lot of opportunities to state that the games might be faulty and give a possible reason. So it's more like an indirect question if you will. >Hmmm I thought that is what I said. You answer sounds like double >talk to me. I think you are saying you agree in a roundabout way. You wrote "it is not possible to play Nunn...", which is not true. Unlikely, but not impossible. However, this is knitpicking :o), so I'll be happy to agree with you. >Difficult....Mogens if you ask reasonable questions without trying >to put me down then in return you will get reasonable answers. >If you ask a specific reasonable question you will get a specific >reasonable answer........amazing how that work huh. I think we communicate differently, which is one of the reasons for this breakdown in communication. I use a condensed form for english, which I'm quite fond off. I'll try to change it and reduce the amount of irony and sarcasm, but bear with me. >See Mogens, even the tone of such a remark "Thank you, was it that >difficult?" sounds degrading and condescending. And appears IMO that >you do it with purpose. It the remark had been aimed at me, I wouldn't percieve it as degrading or condescending. If that had been the intention, something like "Thank you, was it _that_ difficult?" would have been better. But even that doesn't come close to a derogatory remark IMO. But english isn't my native tongue, so I'm not sure. >I am only amazed that Uri would ever want any further communication >with you. I only quote this as an example as it seems you do it >in a lot of your posts when others happen to disagree with you. You're taking that post out of context, but I agree that the last paragraph wasn't polite in any way. I don't think I've insulted anyone else lately, but I might be wrong. Sincerely, Mogens
