Re: reply etiquette

 It is inexcusably rude to reply to someone's message without
 sending the reply to the person who sent the message.  You
 have done that with several of my messages.  I demand an
 apology.

I am rather confused by this posting.

Can anyone explain it to me?

it's very simple. if you reply in a public forum to a message that someone sent, it's common courtesy to send the author of the original message a copy of the reply.

for a variety of reasons, merely sending the message to the public forum is not sufficient, unless the author has explicitly indicated that this is sufficient.
