Ok gents, let's take a deep breath all around.  The rule of the list
is civility.  I have to say that both of your bon mots leading to
this straightforward response could be construed in more than one way
with greater or lesser grains of charity, and I know that each of us
has foibles that others find irritating.  When two sets of foibles
complement each other the temperature can rise pretty quickly.

I would hope that you both can be gentlemanly about this, but if you
can't, take it private.

Yours,
