Yes Mark, you are a problem.  You insult people personally. There is no need
for that.  BartC is a challenge, I agree, but he has not said anything
personal against you or anyone else.

Stop making personal attacks.  Find another way to deal with your frustration.

The Python Code of Conduct says to treat people with respect.  You aren't
doing that.  I know you feel like Bart has been disrespectful by dragging out
threads and ignoring important parts of the Python language.  I agree, that
is frustrating, but it different than making personal insults.

Stop it.  You are hurting this list and you are hurting Python.
