Thank you for your email, the majority of which I agree with. As a
matter of fact I’ve previously refrained from blocking correspondents
for the very reason you cite, namely I could deprive myself of the
benefit of their knowledge. Furthermore, I greatly appreciate variation
in styles of communication. It would be an insipid world if we all
consistently conformed to set guidelines – I think of my early
schooldays L. However, I must correct you on one point; I do not wish to
block people because they disagree with me – please.
Nonetheless when, after objective consideration, I still discern
overtones of arrogance which impart a feeling of belittlement; well, the
time has come the walrus said to implement the block.
