You must think that all your readers here are stupid.

It's completely clear what "Arnaud" meant and why it
was wrong, even to you, I'm sure, all of your smoke
and misdirection aside.

No, it is not. 'Jászság' is the name of the region,
which takes its name from the Jász _people_.

Because that is the name.

Not that I know of, but my family history is off-topic
in any case.

> Are you of the Romanian ethnos?

No, the ethnos in question is that of the Jász. I have
besides a Scottish great grandfather from whom I get my
family name, the one you claimed came from a garbage can,
and a Cherokee great-grandmother as well.

All of this is however, again, off-topic. If you just
happen to feel chatty, then locate a geneology list and
we can discuss it at length there.

I'm told offline by other members of cybalist the same
about yourself.

Is this another of your brilliant generalizations?

At various times on this list and others you have let
slip samples of your racist, sexist, and homophobic
thinking, and in private e-mail let them fly fast and
free, including this comment about your sexism.

In case you haven't looked out your window in awhile
time, which often appears to be the case with you,
racism, sexism, and homophobia are all immoral.

> Jenseits von Gut und Böse? Flattery from you, David???????

Now you explain that one for us in detail. I don't
mean Nietzsche, but your claim of flattery.

Precisely: I have to, because you're not emotionally
stable, and you do not, because I am.

Attempting to curb your abuse of this list doesn't
amount to attempting to enslave you, but then this
is really just an example of what I described at
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/cybalist_admin
and no more.

I wrote to cyablist_admin, describing Patrik Ryan:
