Lest anyone think that this message actually described real events
that Joop is referring to, it is taken out of context, and in no way
represents what actually happened in the IDNO, such as Joop is trying
to make it appear.

In doing so he ignores the real reasons, which have no bearing on this
list.

I really do not want to drag all of that into here, but if Joop tries
makes claims about the IDNO here, that do not match the facts or
actual documented history, they will be refuted.

That is not a personal attack, it is a refutation of statements made
by a person, not an attack on that person.

Something our co-chair needs to learn to understand as well.
