I have been reading this mailing list for several years, and can think
of maybe one or two discussions that got like this. The vast majority
of them are quite civil technical discussions. Don't blame the
language for your lack of competence. If you feel that English can't
convey your ideas, that's not the fault of the language but a lack of
fluency on your part. Stop trying to misdirect the discussion.
