In that case, he can say so instead of claiming that I'm wrong when
I say that I don't do this.

I suspect he misunderstood that you were referring to ONLY your own
experience. An understandable mistake given the sub-thread, IMHO. After
all, a single individual's experience has very little bearing on the overall
wisdom of reading back altimeter settings.

Yes, you specifically said "*I* rarely get..." but in context, that can
easily be interpreted as implying a general case, rather than being meant
for only the specific case.

Looking back over the past several posts in this sub-thread, it certainly
appears that there's a fair amount of mixed signals. Maybe someone
should've read back a post or two.
