Sounds to me as if you want this to turn into a pissing match, Don.

For the record:

A poster cross-posted this thread between ba.transportation and
la.transportation and you objected.

Not only did you object, you threatened to report that poster to their
ISP.

When I intereceded -- admittedly, as strongly as your threat -- you
call *me* pushy.

If you review the thread, nowhere did I quote my "authority" as MTA's
senior passenger advisor, yet you now believe you can threaten to use
this incident to have me removed.

I have even been called a "bully" by Ric Silver (in e-mail) when I
didn't even start this incident.  IMHO, you were the bully in this
matter, not I.

Comparing me to Joe Dunn is ludicrous, for reasons explained in the
official So.CA.TA message I posted recently in a different thread.

I will make one suggestion:  In the future, if a thread bothers you,
mark it "ignore" with your newsreader.  I've done that on many
occasions, and I'm sorry I didn't mark this thread that way.

(This message cross-posted to ba.transportation, for the record.)
