Hi Jon.....I wasn't rising to the bait. I just honestly enjoy giving him hell as much as he enjoys the trolling.

However, I do find his type of bigotry to be the most insidious and damaging, cloaked in a veil of rationality. We are seeing so much of that today in this world. It makes dealing with the serious issues of human interaction so much harder. No, I just love to have Conrad stop in for a "shot" every now and again. It doesn't anger me at all. Perhaps its therapeutic. He's a jerk...a troll...a bigot of the worst type......everyone knows it. I am glad to see that no one here will engage him in serious discussion anymore. That's a great leap forward for the 'Cat. Maybe we should take turns.

And Doug......I really am sorry about your Yak. I got troubles of my own though. The National Lead Congress just called me and are sending me a subpoena to appear and show cause as to why I have defamed a useful metal.
