Thanks a lot.  I initially responded sincerely and, I thought,
respectfully.  You subsequently responded, ignoring everything I had
said and I simply pointed this out to you.

Thanks.  I feel a lot younger now!  (you could, of course, do a simple
web search and you'll see that I am not that young, unfortunately ;-)

No, at that point, you brought up people wanting to use text modes
instead of graphical interfaces.  I replied that I use text interfaces
because of RSI problems with the mouse.  You then said that I should
use more a more _modern_ key binding set for Emacs.  I responded to
say that this would exacerbate my RSI.  You didn't like this.  Tough.
