That's unhelpful.

Until you read the archives, you have no idea what arguments are in them.
Why expect the people who don't agree with you (which seems to be quite a

been satisfactorily resolved.  It's simply courtesy to read the old
discussions, think about them, and if you still don't agree, come back
here explaining why.
