Naw, I didn't insult his person, the company he worked for, his manhood
because he holds that viewpoint, the kind of clarinet he plays, the way he
teaches, etc. etc. I just expressed an opinion that I don't believe him -
I believe his motives are different than what he states. That's all.

I didn't find in concilliatory............and again, the interpretation
rests with the people who are not being discussed hmmmm?

You should reread the definition of ad hominem atttack............this
doesn't fit.

Sincerely,
