Michael,
I hope you're not this dismissive, patronizing of your colleagues, students (? if
you're a teacher)? In fact, if your feelings were this hurt by this exchange, you need
to grow some skin. I suspect however that you're storming off b/c you were unable
to defend your position and this is your way of saving face.
Needless to say, I never attacked you personally. I attacked your argument after
your attacking my taking issue with your posting a "useful" link on disability politics
that ironically wasn't accessible to the public.
Personally, you are behaving like a child and you should
grow up [!],
DOQ
