Your witness and others' do indeed show that I must have misunderstood what he expressed.I also know Peter and correspond with him from time to time. I have had a chance to meet him and we have had some pretty deep conversations. I agree with Dave, no way he meant that statement as you took it. He meant you were missing out on a major rules section and bypassing a part of history for any given HASL by not playing them. He was not saying you were a history-denier in the sense that phrase has come to mean.
The man's line of work is to build infrastructure in struggling third world places first hand, where armed men would not want to set foot, with nothing but the shirt on his back, know-how and his NGO's backing and good intentions. You have completely mis-read him as a person and his intent. I agree that HAD he meant it that way, you would most definitely have cause for being more than upset. I would stake my life, that he did not mean it that way.
Sincere apologies to all for the fuss and the thread derailment.
