Ditto Poet's post. I won't comment on the provocativeness of communication patterns because there would be no way for anyone to "win" that debate, cause it's a personal opinion. But I will say that I percievied this as quite threatening as well.http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/eating/20061124/msgs/706857.html
