You've had plenty already.  Your problem is if people don't
agree with you, you think they don't understand you.  To quote
you from another mail,

  Some of the postings addressed to me have made it clear that the
  posters haven't read what I've already written (or maybe I haven't
  been clear enough), so I've had to reiterate some points.

No, you didn't have to.  You were clear enough the first time.  After
that you've just been answering the objections by ignoring them and
repeating your own mantras again and again, or by badmouthing the
objectors and questioning their motives. 

Rahul.
