Thread Name: BS: G.B. and N.I.?
Subject: RE: BS: G.B. and N.I.?
Your posts are there for all to read, if anyone can be arsed to check what you've posted. Again, you argue in favour of the cult of philistinism. I also know some wonderful people who didn't go to university, or even do 'O' or 'A' Levels. I know a good few who did do all that, just as wonderful they are too. Rather than worry about all that, or get all jealous of those with better FORMAL educations than either mine, or especially yours or Teribus's, I prefer to see people in the round, for their common humanity, aspirations and achievements. A lot of people with degrees will tell you that the actual piece of paper is irrelevant once they've launched out into tbe world beyond academia. But a sound education is a great setup for life as long as you stay grounded. Unlike with you and Teribus, that means staying cool, calm and measured, without the ranting, raving insulting behaviour and inferiority complex with all its associated insecurities that typifies most of your posts.

I'm glad I annoyed you, by the way. That could be a sign of progress. I await with relish tbe heather thread. Why don't you and Bill get your heads together in a joint effort?
