It's not so much that Dyl is her spokesman as that everyone who spends
much time here knows how to interpret 'Ingerlish.' Well, as much as is
possible for normal folk.

If you have ever, ever, posted anything in any forum where Inger also
posts, she probably has judged you. And her judgment of most people is
that they are out to get her. (As a prophecy, this one is of the
self-fulfilling type.)

If you have never, ever posted anything in any forum where Inger also
posts, she probably read your first comment as an insult to her (or
'abuse,' which includes disagreeing with her, or asking for references
from her, among other stuff); or she has you mixed up with someone else
who has learned to distrust what she writes unless she actually
supports it with presented evidence and supporting documentation.

IOW, she probably has you confused with someone else. She might
apologize to you, if you don't 'abuse' her any more right away.

Good luck. Try to stay sane and hang loose. Sometimes Inger stimulates
interesting conversations. It's just that her part in them is usually
to get something very wrong, and knowledgeable people write interesting
articles to help correct her.

Of course, YMMV.
