I still don't see any problem with the original request for info that Jerry has made in a straight forward fashion. However , I do think its a mistake to try to say that there is something wrong with people openly objecting to this approach. Jerry , Mike P came right out and told you he doesn't like the idea and he told you why. He did it in the same straight forward , open manner with which you made the request. I don't think there was animosity in that response. Just a clearly stated opinion.

I would be very careful not to redirect the conversation from a discussion of the merits of the original request to some sort of personal confrontation. Everyone is entitled to an open and honest opinion here. If it gets personal , people will line up behind Mike P who is a long time contributer and who is a personal friend of a number of us. He's just as entitled to his opinion about your request as you are in making the request in the first place. My opinion only , of course.
