You set the tone off-the-bat in your first off-list e-mail.
Com'mon guy, if you want to work together, start nice. ;->

You're complaining about my off-list posts so I reposted _my_ off-list
reponses at that time (one which quoted one paragraph of yours).

Otherwise, I _only_ CC'd Max Lang, President of LEAP on latter, off-list
responses, for my own protection. I told you this _upfront_.

There is a right way to ask and a wrong way. In your off-list e-mails,
you have consistently taken a very "aggressive" stance.

You drew the line in the sand. I just walked perpendicular to it like
you didn't exist. I'm sorry you dislike me ignoring your last few
e-mails.

Please stop now. God help us when you have a _real_ problem with
someone. ;->
