Ah, I had not actually realized you characterized wedrifid’s comments that way. I just saw it as taking note of a potentially-useful object lesson.
If you don’t mind my asking, in what way did you find it antagonistic? Was it merely having your actions pointed to as a good example of what not to do? Perceived tone? Claiming that you were incorrect? Use of the Lw jargon term ‘insane’?

Actually, I do mind you asking. If you don’t care to invest the energy to answer my questions, I prefer not to invest the energy to answer yours.
