I did not react at once since I was off line and busy doing other things
for a while.

I have no idea who started it. I did not follow this exchange of rude
personal attacks. From the glimpses of it I have got so far I have no
doubt that Arnaud was actively involved. But even if somebody else
started the trouble you did wrong to reply in kind.

I find this accusation of racism offensive. What evidence can you offer
that I have ever treated "non-European" list members unfairly?

No, some Americans and Indians also have a rather shameful record in
this respect. I have never divided Cybalist members according to things
like their complexion, hair colour or country of residence. People are
people, wherever they come from, and there's a fairly equal proportion
of misbehavers among various nations.

I have just warned EVERYBODY, irrespective of their nationality, that
this display of bad manners has to stop.
