Kudos.

"I can't hear you I can't hear you" is neither mature, productive, or
embracing that diversity that makes Debian what it is. It smacks of
"talk to the hand" and other sophist bullying techniques - (which I'd be
certain a troubleshooting expert of Steve's calibre wouldn't stoop to).

It's difficult finding the tolerance to give fair hearing to those who
make demands on others while refusing to hear opposing views,
*especially* when they claim they are not being listened to.

Kind regards
