Sehr geehrte Herr Dr. Carsten Bormann:

Your summary of my article is a gross misrepresentation of its actual
content.  I have no interest in discussing things with you if you are
not honest enough to not impute statements and opinions to me which I
factually do not hold, nor man enough to keep from accusing people of
religiously defending something because you have been proven wrong on
several serious counts in your diatribe against that something.

You have been most disappointing, Dr. Bormann.

To acknowledge the fact that I value your opinion when uncontaminated
by pointlessly insulting rhetorics and any hidden agenda you bring to
the discussion, I invite you to restate your arguments to this group,
concerning SGML, and not as if to me, concerning my reactions to your
sour-grapes whining about SGML's purported failings.

Sincerely yours,
Erik Naggum
