Be that as it may, the person you are responding to, and that
you regularly interact with at length, has shown repeatedly that
he is not acting in good faith.

Technical answers to technical questions, and even spirited
debates with vigorous disagreement, are all well and good as
long as all parties are at least attempting to honor a collegial
spirit of cooperation.  But in this case, as with most cases
involving Lawrence, the base conditions in which to have the
discussion are simply not met.

This is the sort of thing that ought to be in an FAQ.
