I know what you mean, because I have had similar reactions.

But, I've tried to keep one thing in mind (and give him the benefit of
the doubt and not that)... in e-mail, people always tend to seem rude.

Just my opinion... I don't think Tantek means anything by it.  (I.e.,
I don't think he's trying to be insulting.  That's just how he
writes.)

I know personally... for myself... that people who don't know me well
think I'm being an a$$hole when I talk... even though I don't mean it
that way.  I'm just very very blunt.  But some people interpret it in
ways that I don't mean.


See ya
