Young, lots of other people do too, they just
don't want to become the next "hobby" of a Internet
psychopath.

Lots of other people associate the ability to read and think
critically with being "special" and having "fantasies of grandeur". I
guess that this is your defense. Lots of people hate critical
thinkers. Lots of people hate people who can read. "Those damn uppity
readers and thinkers", you must exclaim, "Who do they think they are?
Why can't everybody be dumb like us. Then we'd feel better about
ourselves." Perhaps this is what Neanderthals thought about Homo
Sapiens, too. It didn't work out too well for them either.

Oh, JP, that'd be you and your crazy holy
missions of the truth patrol.

That's right. You named me the "Truth Patrol" and I named you and Ken
the "Lying Cowards". I'm still pretty happy with those labels if you
are.

Your newsgroup Jihads.
Do you ever take a step back and look at what you
are doing?

That's part of critical thinking: answering questions and reflecting
on responses. Try it sometime.

I know your self righteous indignation
Young. You don't see it, do you? Your sick
arrogance. Your obsession.

I'm familiar with the obsession charge. Doing this is still fun for
me. If it weren't I would stop. Is everyone who does something they
like obsessed with it?

I can understand how someone with an average intelligence and a
command of simple facts must come off as "arrogant" and "self
righteous" to a pathetic, ignorant, know-nothing, such as yourself.
I'm afraid that there is nothing that I can do to make you smarter, so
I can't fight that perception of yours.

You running on and on
and on and when you can't find anything new, you
go back to month old posts and dredge it all up again
and crosspost it to the universe.

If my responses scare and intimidate you, perhaps you should stop
asking questions. It is true that I will go back to get examples of
past behavior from older posts. Since you never responded to most of
these, and I'm still interested in getting an answer, this doesn't
seem so strange. On the other hand, you went several years back into
my history to come up with newsgroups to post to. Why was that, since
you hate dredging the past and crossposting so much?

Do you think that
is "normal" behavior? Do you think it is anything near
"normal?" You have no idea how many people by now have
concluded that you have some deep rooted psychological
problems, do you? The vast majority of people who just
wish to Christ you'd STFU and let it drop. When anyone
suggests that, you are good for another 10 or 20 posts
crossposted everywhere you think Ken has been.

When I respond to posts, I rarely edit the groups I am responding to
(except perhaps to remove some). I did add sci,physics a few times
when we were having a discussion about plutonium and enriched uranium
because I wanted people more knowledgeable than me to weigh in on the
subject. I believe crossposting everywhere that I have ever been is
your tactic, not mine, as noted above. Remember, you did this a few
days ago. You were proud of it at the time:

This is your typical, blatant tactic of accusing me of something
objectionable that YOU have just done. As always, feel free to give
examples where I have done this and back up your claims. It's funny
how I always ask you to do that and you never comply.
