When you spoke of installing the other version in your home directory I 
had the same impression -- but it was my ASSUMPTION, and when you were 
asked about it you clarified.

Same thing -- I thought the version you were getting might be the 
portable version or something akin to it -- but AGAIN you clarified.

Diesel jumps to conclusions and instead of looking for clarification he 
assumes others just MUST believe what he misunderstood.

To make it worse for him, he goes off topic and makes implications he 
does not intend, such as when he talked about having an executable in 
response to comments about the flood bot. The obvious assumption -- 
which he later said was wrong -- is he was still talking about the flood 
bot (he made no indication he was changing topics).

He later said that he did not intent for his comments to apply to what 
he replied to (the flood bot). I accepted that -- but that somehow 
means, in his twisted mind, that I lied even as I said I trusted what he 
said.

Yup.

Is he lying or just incapable of understanding what he reads? Either way 
he will never back down.

-- 
Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They 
cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel 
somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
