What does your ongoing antagonism have to do with classical music,

Having trouble organizing your thoughts, Kohl?  Why else would you need
to post over a dozen separate responses to a single digest?  And what do
those responses, plus all the others you've made to fellow antagonists
have to do with classical music, Kohl?  I see that you still haven't
admitted that your imagining about multiple octocontrabass clarinets
being built is wrong, thereby leading to a misuse of the plural.

What does your contradiction, having stated just recently that my

What does your unsubstantiated and erroneous claim have to do with
classical music, Jaakko?  What does your inability to understand
that one can antagonize without responding directly have to do with
classical music, Jaakko?  What does your lie about not repsonding to
me at all for over a year have to do with classical music, Jaakko?
Tell me, exactly who do you think you were responding to on 2003 May 20
in Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Jaakko?

How ironically comical that your matter of record is a rather blatant
lie, Jaakko.  Just goes to show how dishonest you are.

I see that you still haven't practiced what you preached, Cypherpunk.
