Inquiring minds would almost - not really, but _almost_ want to know
why you care enough to still talk about it after 5 1/2 years of
constant babbling on the issue. I mean, we can dismiss our resident
whacko for pure mental derangement, but you seem like an ordinary,
rational member of society. Why on earth do you still think you can
make any headway on the subject? No, on second thought, don't bother.
I _really_ don't care.

I almost _never_ issue a *plonk* post, but since you brought it up,
I killfilled RK yesterday (on one of my computers at least) for this
very reason. It's fewer useless uninteresting posts I'll have to
mark as read. Trying to convince Henry he's delusional by using
logic is being just as delusional as Henry.

Um, that's true, but killfiling Rob still falls under the category of
"cutting off your nose to spite your face".

I suppose there is an occasional nugget of wisdom uttered by almost
everyone here, even Henry. But I tire of wading through thousands
of lines of dross to find those nuggets. When someone is actively
encouraging one of the most annoying [1] of all the trolls on this group,
they are easy to let go.
[1] for email address morphing, not for being off topic-- I could easily
ignore Henry's delusional rants if he would simply have the personal
integrity to stick to a single email address. I do literally despise
him for that.

Problem with that is that Rob is consistantly one of the more knowlegeable
and helpful posters on Reeky. I don't always agree with everthing he says,
but he can be counted upon to say his piece in a reasonably polite and
well-reasoned manner. (I'm personally pretty good at the "reasoning" part,
but I occasionally forget all about "polite".)

You have lots of company. And their numbers only grow as time goes by.
