The message
from "Mike" contains these words:

"I" don't have a problem.

"YOU" have a problem in that you are an expert and you do not wish to see
newbies coming onto your Gardening Newsgroup asking questions.

Not how I read it.

Consequently, I have nothing to 'live with', but the two problems that you
have to live with, are newbies popping up asking questions, and me.

Again, not how I read it. I've known Anne for a long time and from my
fairly brief acquaintance with you I'd wager she'd have you for a snack
before breakfast.

Oh by the way, please don't shout. (I would imagine that as you are so
familiar with newsgroups and netiquette, that you are aware that using
capitals is a sign of shouting). It shows that you are losing your temper
and thereby not in control of your own emotions.

Again, not how I read it. I *COULD* just sit back and watch, but the
rather inadequate pomposity of your post was too inviting.

Anne wasn't in the Diplomatic Service for nothing.....

I also feel that in using the word 'bloody' in the context you have used it,
then that is a sign of swearing at me. Please do not swear at me, or anyone
else come to that, as I explained to Mabbett when he stooped so low as to
swear at me, it shows a complete lack of the English language when you
resort to using such words and I regard such people uneducated in said
English language.

A very laudable lecture, but if you are going to flaunt in public the
English language and its use, I'd be inclined to make sure your use of
it is at the very least, competent.

Have a nice day

And you may take that back to McDeadthings where it belongs. Please.
