In the context of that diary, and comment thread, I don't think that interpretation is tenable, and poemless didn't suggest that interpretation in subsequent discussion.  However, the very fact you read it that way shows how easily misunderstandings can arise when there is only a keyboard and not the full range of visual and tonal cues we use to establish meaning and intent in face to face conversations.  I do think that is a major part of the problem with 99% of disputes which arise here.  I didn't notice any spats in the many lively conversations which took place at our Paris meet-up last month, though the sunshine and the copious amounts of wine might have played a role in that!
