I have no problem with what Tony Pay has posted up to this point. I found his
post directed at Neil to be over the top but not the material to base the
removal of a subscriber. However, your capitals and asking for the removal of
Tony led me to ask for yours. I find your censorious response to be an
unacceptable one and setting a worse example than one subscribers attack on
another. It is unfortunate that such a post appeared (Tony's that is) but by
its nature, dialectical arguments will often go in such a direction.
