There is nothing wrong with honesty. No need to be brutal.

Posting in anger is never a good idea. I am equally angry about what I saw 
happening in MdR, but I have learned to swallow a few times or sleep on it 
before hitting the keyboard.
(except in realtime chat :))
I'm sorry , but you went the wrong way about it.  Lone individuals, even if 
grandstanders, even if mentioned by name by Esther Dyson, are not your enemy.
Character assassination taints the assassin more than the victim.

We are not idly sitting by. Organizing people is a slow and painful 
process, as you may have observed from reading the last few years of IDNO 
archives.
Without money, it needs endless patience and fortitude to build up the 
legitimacy that creates the force that *must* be listened to.

This is uncalled for and negates your apology.
Please, Sotiris, have a good night's sleep and return with a unreserved 
apology.
Show that you are man enough to do what the habitual ad hominem attackers 
here cannot.
