I think in fact you need to be mindful of what constitutes a personal attack, or in the vernacular of arguments, an ad hominem.

ad hominem: an argument directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining

Each of the quotes you have listed that I wrote in response to Aerohead is against the positions that he puts forward here (and where in your quotes they appear not to be, it's due to your editing).

If I said Aerohead was a moron, a fool, an idiot, smelt of old rags, was whacky (etc, etc) than they would be personal attacks. But none of my comments are like that: they are comments on what Aerohead puts forward here, viz, a large amount of misleading and incorrect rubbish.

As for your other quotes, how about the context of writing what was being directed at me?
