Well then...

Since you're perfect and have never made a mistake (oh yeah, there was that one time you thought you had but you were wrong) and since you were the only one to get the message (oh, that's right, it went to the whole list so I guess that Will won't see it (duh!)) and since you're already an expert at the task and an arrogant so and so my offer to share my help book doesn't extend to you.

And since you obviously speak for the whole list I won't bother replying to any more emails from it. Clearly, I certainly can't offer anything helpful because you know it all so far be it from me to interfere.
