I am a Stewart of Appin - and can trace my family back to the early 1600s. That's enough for me - don't need to know more, thanks."

In the second paragraph you say you trace your family back to the 1600's and the fact that I reach back further is of no interest to you. How then can you claim that it is I that needs to read more. You have admitted a lack of interest in the subject matter I speak of and then, in almost the same breath, claim that you, essentially know more about those same very things.

If you wish to know no more I can have no objection but I do object to your thought process when you claim to know more about something you admit to having never even been interested in.

P.S. I simply do not pay heed to someone commenting on something when they know nothing of it, as you have virtually admitted.
