You know exactly why we fell out, Lorne. It was 2009, the year of the centenary celebrations, and also the year of my 50th birthday. I had organised a party. As you well know eMog in those days was a closed discussion group, open only to those who applied to join. Unlike TM, it wasn't visible to guests. I extended an invitation to eMoggers who were attending the centenary at Cheltenham to come to the party.

You then took it upon yourself, without reference to me, to advertise the party on Mogwire, a website that you ran which was completely open for anyone in the world to see.

When I remonstrated with you on eMog to remove it, your response was to blame me and get one of your fellow moderators to also write critical emails to me.

As a result I left eMog.

If you include calling you out for patronising people whom you don't know as acting with 'great hostility' then yes, I have done that and will continue to do so. Your assumption that you know better than everyone else is pretty offensive.
