I was pushed over that line. Before posting such accusations, I surveyed the web. I have found that in other forums too, Erik can be utterly wrong, confused about the issue, but must express his opinion in rough language. Here is my first clash with him:

or here, he is pilloring someone's english and then giving the wrong answer:

You tell me what do you think of this?
I could fill a page with such links. I am definitely not a newbie or incompetent. But you tell me what would a newbie feel with such kind of replies. And it is a fact that most of the SMS posters are Indians and in every forum he is using his favourite description of SMS or simply being rude. And no person on earth can be acceptable for being rude and wrong at the same time.
None of us use such language on regular basis and these are public forums. No matter how angry I get, I would never abuse or humiliate even an employee in public, unless it is a life threatening situation.
