There is no need to be that offensive, Phil.
This is usenet, threads have a tree structure where people reply to
replies and not direct to the original posting.
** WRONG !!
One can reply to the OP over and over, ignoring all others.

well know the rules.
If that is the case,

My comment was to *one* person, hoping he would reply in order to
explain himself.
You cannot post to "*one* person" on Usenet.
** Yes you can, by directing a question or thought to them.
It's then up to them to reply.
Others have no ****ing idea what the OP is needing or thinking and ought not attempt to reply for them.
To send something to "just one person" you have to use email.
** True, but irrelevant.
How can you have been posting to Usenet for 20 years and not have
learned this fact?
** Cos is it simply not a fact.
Questioning and drawing out an OP is essential to providing useful answers to them.
FYI:
Only *complete fools* treat OP's questions as if they had appeared on some exam paper.
Only *complete ****wits* complain about others who get it right.
