I can appreicate this.  Was anybody else questioned?  I thought he was trolling.
 Probably my state of mind. I was pretty upset and in rant and rave mode.

I can post our coversation if you wish, but would prefer to not do this; and to
either not have this coversation or, if absolutely necessary, have it with Will.

I offerred to imediately send log files both while playing when _Will_ provoked
this on ICC with what to me seemed like a cheap jibe, as I recall just before
the Fritz game.  I also offered to send the log files imediately after.

In defending my inocence, I am in danger of seeming to protest too much, but am
still upset, perhaps mostly at myself for rising to the (continuing) bait.
