Why would tactful [or courteous] honesty be objectionable to
anyone--minority, oppressed or anyone? It indicates respect of someone in
my book. Which tasks would you like to get on with Greg?

In reality, the vast majority of the participants in the
echo wish you had a little more tact. Very few people agree with
your statements. Very few posters in this echo think your
contributions are worth while. In fact if everyone exhibited the
same amout of tact and honesty you display they would suggest
that you leave.
If the about is not clear, I think most participants
would welcome your departure for another conference.
Farewell and enjoy your anger.
