That in no way replies to what I said.  It was his statistics I was querying, 
and I still do.

I just have the folder reply set to "reply to list".  I would have said that 
that, or something similar, was true of the majority of debian users, tho' 
patently not all, and equally patently I too have no real evidence.

So, I repeat: on what do (you and) he base the assertion that the majority of 
those on this list agree with you?
