Screw it, the EQP hit you up without invitation. It does no good to play footsie with these people, being blunt and grumpy is your best approach.
Keep it up. You don't owe everyone a polite response.
Sincerely,
Arch

At least it gives them a narrative they can fit into their neat little puzzle. "He was offended."

The thing is..kindness is a wonderful thing..but really...what you did was let yourself be yourself in being upfront, honest..and with no guile..speak your truth. I thought you did the right thing...I went in and around and under...and all I did was hurt myself and others..slowly. So I admire you. What they were inviting you too..was to shoot yourself in the foot...and the circle would have gone on and on and on.
