You are impatient. Obviously, Feferman will "defend" himself if he thinks
he has been "attacked" and thinks it is worthwhile to "defend" himself.

But I am quite sure that what you wrote is not anything he welcomes as a
"defense"!

Your posting is dated 4:28AM, which is probably a time at which you are
normally asleep. I think on reflection, you probably wish you were asleep.
Please retract the posting with an apology; and, if you desire, a reposting
of some dignified version of it. Thank you.
