Andy did you answer the n800 analogy?

No? You're a fucking idiot!, end of. You're continuing to be
argumentative. 

Just because I make a simple statement which I and others consider to be

My original email had other very valid points for discussion, which were
ignored as Martin saw fit to attack me on minor points.
