How 'bout everyone calms down, eh? This is text, and one can't project a 'voice' into it. For one person, it may actually be a simple fact- that doesn't mean they are condescending, it just means that they have a different point of view. 

Discuss, and just go on. No need to get heated. I only get angry when somebody accuses me of something, or I think someone is accusing me of something- but someone always has to accuse someone first, no?
