You can get annoyed by those references but, in that case :

1) no need to be rude

2) just skip his posts when you see his name

Did I miss something here (the Third World War between you 2), an argument or something? What does this kind of reaction bring to the mailing list ? Anything positive out of your comments ?

gentlement, let's keep it cool and friendly here please!

But in *every* email?

This is like when you switch job and in *every* conversation you say "But in my old company we did X". So What?
Or even when you are in another country to remind everyone that "in $MyHomeCountry this is better". Yes, even
if you are right, after the 49th time it gets idiotic. Especially, if it's just *talk* and not *do*.
