My OP was to ask why population had stayed so flat for so long. I then responded politely another three times to various statements. My next post (at the bottom of pg 2) was to change the focus of my question and I said "1 to 7 billion in the blink of an eye". The next post was from mod Cthulhu who asked:
"Is there something unclear in the reasons you've been given for this?"
I didn't feel it had been answered because up until this point I hadn't asked it. And I read the point (rightly or wrongly) as slightly patronising. And from then on it's all downhill.
I don't think I've done much wrong other than misreading the tone of a post...
Interesting, lifes, that you preferred to address the quibble, rather than MA's response to your follow-up question.
Becca (which is embedded in you title) you could find fault in me giving a million pounds to charity - after earlier ......tussles

I personally don't blame you for being distracted by the other 90%, I'm just 'man-splaining'.
What?
PS if you're about to post a reply and your response is going to be negative, improper, average, odd, obtuse, irrational, an argument, might change the focus, going off at a tangent or just mean ... go and find a maths forum to post on instead, they'll love you !!
