OK Adrian, please explain exactly why my message demonstrated me to be an idiot,
or retract the offensive statement. I was not criticising your message,
incidentally, merely indicating that, if your message indicated how to change
BMA policy, then it showed how long it took to get BMA policy changed. And of
course there would always be someone that objected to any new proposal.

IMHO such responses as yours to genuine messages on this mailing list are
inappropriate.
