You also maybe should know that I could have texted that to him as well. It's not as if we don't know each other.. i may have even been to his home previously :-)

You should perhaps consider if you are modeling the behavior that you want to see others adopt. They don't know your relationship status, they only know that you find it acceptable to be rude and dismissive in a professional environment.

Newcomers, outsiders, and others will take that experience to heart.

Speaking of newcomers, could you please be more polite to newcomers here?

From the HN guidelines: "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith."

Ah, I see my mistake - I confused one participant on the list with another. My apology to Jared. Thank you for the correction, Dan.
