I believe you are not recalling accurately.

Indeed.  Seems that there are a few people here that would rather baselessly
malign me than search the archives in vain and have to eat their words.

Did you miss this part sir?:

"Please point out an instance of where I have "flamed" you, so that I may
apologize, and we can both put the terrible tragedy behind us."

If it's "flame", let's put it out.  If it ain't, let's stop the false
accusations, huh?

No, you're the one doing the accusing, it's your job to do the legwork.  If
indeed there are "all [these] messages criticising others" flowing from me,
it should surely be trivial to find just one example that's a "flame" in the
archives, should it not?
