Rubbish. In all but one of the cited cases, IIRC, I demonstrated from the 
Standard that he was wrong. The fourth, I felt so obvious that I didn't 
need to cite, but I can do so if you wish.

I would much prefer my replies to present Jacob Navia in a positive light. 
Unfortunately, he doesn't give me much opportunity.

Your reply has lent credence to the theory that you may be too ready to 
jump to conclusions on insufficient data. You also seem to think that your 
belief is of particular importance to me. It isn't. You believe what you 
like. My own belief is that this group would be better off if Jacob Navia 
learned what it's for.
