What is proven? That you was joking? How have you proved that?

Can you give an example where I'm joking?

I've answered on everything until your sentence "Tony, I invite you to think
about all this - if you have time. Let's discuss this in a friendly atmosphere.
Perhaps we can find a new base for SSDF."

It seem to me that you didn't expect me to have so much answers. So you call me
arrogant and refuse to continue the debate.
