Sometimes the "wall" has to talk to the "door" so that the "dog" stops peeing on it.

I thought Joe's remark was addressed to Anand and not you?

Dear Katinka

My views are:

I guess you are talking about me and Anand?

Please. My dear fellow Seeker, I did not myself say such a thing.
Try to read the e-mails again.

I merely suggested that Joe remained calm within himself, and this does most certainly not imply, that Joe aught to "shut up" or to ask others to 'shut up' or anything like that does it?
And it did not imply, that I suggested a long time student to tell me, that I said something which I actually did not say and never had the intention of saying.

Why attack me for seeking to be helpful to all of us?

I'm finding it very hard to not say 'shut up' here as well. Joe is trying, like me - to create a forum with a different atmosphere from the one here. That may include asking people who are used to the combative style of theos-talk to please tone it down a bit or even shut up. 

Funny that now you two are saying, in slightly different words, to Joe to 'shut up'. :)
