[GRLUG] Hostile Attitudes

[Benjamin Flanders]

It is true that the hostilities started with the Prof.  I am not sure
exactly what he/she was trying to put forth with the whole "oh shadda
up!" business.  Was he trying to be funny, insulting ...  I don't
know.  I don't think he/she is a native english speaker.

I don't think, however, that responding in kind is appropriate.

If he insulted you then stop helping him and delete the e-mail.
