As I said earlier, I made my peace with this misguided message long ago, knowing
your intention to keep it.
Nevertheless, it is MHO that it should be removed, and I haven't been convinced
otherwise. I think my messages about this are generally thought out and useful,
even if they don't persuade you in particular. Just because someone expresses
disagreement, that does not make his expression useless.
