ahahahaha omg yeah he... is very aggressively not saying anything about why anything happened!

I am also a fan of selenak's reasoning :P :D (okay, I meant her original Peter-Fritz reasoning, but I gueeeeess it could be the other things she says)

But what gets me is that even if he doesn't want to share the details of the insult, surely it would be in his best interests to say that he *was* insulted? I don't understand the total silence. Maybe I missed it in the sight-reading of handwritten French, but I've been through at least three letters from him on the subject and not seen the faintest hint of an explanation anywhere. He's being relentlessly silent, which makes me feel that something other than an insult is going on.
