A tower-induced go-round

There is absolutely nothing in my story that is inconsistent, nor is
there anything that I would have -- or should have -- done
differently.
Nothing in my telling of the tale has changed from start to finish,
either. It is only Steven -- and you, apparently -- that sees change
where none exists.
Let's check the record.
On 3/16 you wrote:
"Having landed at OSH and SNF a few times, I knew I was spaced just
fine -- IF the 172 would only get off the danged runway."
On 3/18 you wrote:
"Face it, the controller should have had the 172 follow me in. He
misjudged the spacing."
Going from "spaced just fine" to "he misjudged the spacing" sure looks like
a change to me.
If Steven wants to quibble about how precisely far out I was when the
student was in front of me, that's his option -- but please don't side
with his form of anal insanity.
I don't recall quibbling about how far out you were. I recall asking how
far out you were and you being unable to provide an accurate response,
despite having GPS. You finally decided you were about 1/2 mile out when
the student landed 1500' down the runway. If your estimates are accurate
there was proper spacing.
