No, it's the kind of rhetoric that should make you reflect on what you've 
said instead of going into defensive or counter-attack mode.

So let me lighten the pain: 
CentOS is a rebuild of RHEL. So if the perl-related rpms from Red Hat have 
a quality problem, the CentOS packages suffer from the same problem.

I fail to see why that is relevant in relation to what you stated about 
RHEL and CentOS. Although I found Jim's response amusing it should have 
caused self-reflection and maybe self-correction, instead of on outburst.
