No offense, but you sounded like a stalker.

When you post three messages in a row to the list that don't mention her, 
I'll start thinking about believing you.

Funny how I've never noticed Tammo's seeming bias towards Pierce and 
against the other players, for lo, these many months.  Your bias against

not here?
