Oh, Lord, here we go again. Ted, to the extent that your postings make good
technical points in unemotional language, they are very interesting. I have
no problem with their being controversial; newsgroups are fine for
controversy. To the extent that you continue to insult people and resort
to ad hominem attacks, your postings are not only tiresome but diminish
your credibility to the vanishing point. People who disagree with your
theories (or with whose theories you disagree) are not necessarily stupid
or "misguided." They do not hold a monopoly on the truth; neither do you.
PLEASE stop using the newsgroup as a platform for emotional attacks.
Try to increase the signal-to-noise ratio, OK?
