Oh, the moron stage...  I guessed that you'll use "drivel" too but you
didn't, but most other parts were expected: using my name explicitly,
using the "_you_" thing, and BTW, I don't know who "Marcus G. Daniels"
is to take any courses from (although it is pretty clear he's a
character from one of your episodes that I missed).

Again, your posts at this stage are pretty predictable, including your
constant thing of twist-and-throw-back-at-his-face old tactic.  You
create monsters, you provoke by using nice labels (moron etc) and when
the other side does get (very naturally) provoked you turn the whole
thing back.  One thing _I_ am surprised at is that you keep
complaining about this at the same time as being blind to the fact
that you make it happen time after time.

Here's a good exercise in openness and tolerance: try to take your
post (or the previous one) and write the response that I should write
to satisfy you.  (Resist your temptation to throw this back to me,
just try it.)
