     It is obvious that you, Dimitri Vulis, intend to be
disruptive to the operation of this list. I have politely
asked you several specific questions about your motives.

     I am politely asking you again, Dimitri Vulis, why are
you unwilling to rationally and politely discuss whatever
grievances you have with specific Cypherpunks? I believe
you are capable of rational discourse, you allegedly have
some academic credentials so you must have a passing
familiarity with formal debate. Why are you unwilling to
join this discussion with anything other than immature
insults? If the facts are on your side, a reasonable 
demeanor can only enhance your arguments. If the facts
are not on your side, why can you not graciously admit you
are wrong and withdraw your accusations.

     I have been unfailingly polite to you. Do you have it
within your character to respond to me in kind?

     Thank you for your attentions to this matter.

Logos out

<sigh> Good 'ol Dimitri :)

What can be said other than Dimitri is Dimitri. He has a long and
colorfull history of this childish behavior not only on the cypherpunks
list but is well know on many of the UseNet Newsgroups.

You may also note that many of the more "colorfull" anonymous postings are
of the same format and most likely can be traced back to our good doctor.

Do you think spelling my last name "Vilus" is polite?

Hmm, I looked at my mailbox and haven't found any questions.

I've been participating in this discussion for a considerable period of time
before being attacked by Tim May for no apparent reason (other than his hatred
for Jews and for immigrants). I tried unsuccessfully to convince him off-list
that his attacks are off-topic and false (he attributed to me various bizarre
stuff that I never said). Since he insists on continuing his attacks on my
character, I will point out that he's a liar and a racist.

Sorry for the noise, but could Logos be specific as to the fallacy in
each item he/she is addressing?  I thought that was the purpose of
the Logos character.
