This is such a fucking waste of space and time. Why are you so hard headed?

I never learned to say 'baaah' and I feel no obligation to satisfy your desires or wants. I certainly feel no desire to live my life according to your ethics. If it really bothers you see a shrink.

Just another wannbe tyrant.

No, just a reasonable man asking you not to piss where we drink. Jim, you're being a jerk. When I post long texts, I post only the text, even if I have to pull the page source into emacs to do so. If appropriate, I post the URL instead. This is common courtesy. As you say, it's an open list. No one can actually stop you from being a jerk except yourself. However, as your jerk index increases, people gradually pay less and less attention to you. It hurts your reputation, which is the closest thing to gold you possess in an online form such as this. There's a difference between (1) being a sheep, and (2) acting with consideration; a difference which appears to be too subtle for you. Peter Trei Disclaimer: It's just my opinion, OK?
