I've been making the same suggestions for years, Oldude. ;-) I've also been suggesting that certain individuals here tone down the sarcastic personal attacks, the excessive character assassination, and the outrageous use of hyperbole (extreme exaggeration of another person's supposed position on something by dragging it to some bizarre extreme and then attacking the other person as if that WAS their position, which it almost certainly is not).

But all to no avail. The people who engage in that sort of personal invective are, I think, either unaware that they do it...or else they feel justified in doing it...and it gives them pleasure...and ameliorates their emotional pain a bit...therefore nothing you or I say about it is going to get them to ease off.

The best revenge is to make fun of them for being that way, I figure. And I do. ;-D One is wasting time anyway to take this sort of tripe very seriously. It's really just a bunch of useless noise.
