"Politely request", eh?

On January 13, in the thread "Re: Hamilton's rule: The High Cost Of A Free
Lunch" Edser engaged in offensive and ill-tempered insults aimed at me.
I demanded an apology, and said I would retire from further discussion with
Edser until it was received.  Still waiting, still seeing the same sort of
invective from Edser (see above for echoes of it).  Not interested in
any "polite requests" under those circumstances.
