You messed up the quote tags there.
False, you asserted we were.
I have been disagreeing with that from the get go.
I think we are capable of communicating.
Except that, even after I repeatedly made my position clear and explained how we could have a productive discussion, you kept dismissing me out of hand and responding with increasingly personalised comments.
Stop projecting things on me.
The only thing I've taken personally, are your repeated insinuations and outright accusations about my personality and mental state. Which is perfectly rational, as they are personalised remarks.
But you have no rational basis to make that determination. This is (on of) the first times we've interacted with each other.
More-over, it was you who refused to continue the discussion. I was perfectly willing to re-explain my postion and arguments.

I also got the perception (personal perception, doesn't always reflect reality) you were more interested in finding someone to disagree with and fight and targeting picayune elements of my posts rather than the main point. Right or wrong, it is what I perceived. I chose to simply part ways without placing blame. Sometimes things just don't 'gel,' just like I said when I chose to not engage.
