- >Ha! Did you actually think that my reply was for your benefit?
-
- No, I assumed it for your "benefit". Specifically, to indulge
- yourself in the adolescent pleasures afforded by your pet
- pseudo-philosophy. I can't blame you, really; if I, too, were
- able to convince myself that I possessed absolutely certain
- knowledge of all that is good and true and real, I'm sure I
- would fall into the same trap of vanity that you have.

- What can I say? Someone give this man a Valium.
-
- I wouldn't want to interfere with your play-time, Leon, but you might
- find that its more "fun" if you play by the rules of reasoned discourse.
- Not that you can't be a little insulting, if you choose. But really,
- good fellow, calling me a "statist"? Why not just call me a "pinko
- commie fag and *really* give yourself a rush?
-
- >You know, the world is such a great place once you understand it.
-
- Skip the Valium. Try Thorazine. This one is delusional.
