Now that I look at it, my topic sounds more like I am planning a field trip for trolls. I suppose I could arrange to take them either to a grammar school or on a cruise in the middle of a hurricane. Unfortunately, one trip would go over their heads and the other would get me thrown in jail.

Give the kid a chance…we need to see a few more posts before determining his orientation.
my bronchitus is flaring up and it hurts to laugh, so please refrain from cracks like:*

Of course the AC question was in MPSIMS, seem like the place for such a question.
The John 3:16 question was an attempt to understand something that I did not understand. Yes I looked it up and knew what it said, but could not form an understanding of why it appears at sporting events - so I asked.
You chumps need to get a life! BTW the post that started this was misinterprted by Mullinator - DON’T PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH.
So, now we’ve got a “Troll Patrol” whose solemn duty it is to seek and “out” people who’s questions we don’t like? Who died and made you Inspector?
I’m not gonna stand up and vouch for the intellectual integrity of good 'ole 1420, but, by Bog he’s got as much right to ask seemingly pointless questions as anyone else. If ya don’t like it, you and Diane can get together, form a mutual bitchiness society, and maybe talk to the Los Moderatores to start up your own Censorship Board.
Sheesh! If ya think he’s an asshole, call him an asshole, for chrissakes! Otherwise, save your pithy little snorts-up-the-sleeve for your mom.

Mullinator, what’s the point of all this? You read two or three posts by someone and then run to the pit in an effort to decry him? Thanks, but there are actually some people on this board that really don’t take this that seriously and need to be notified whenever you come across a few posts with which you don’t agree. The pit, at least from what I understand, is a place to go either when arguments get way too heated for any other board or a place to speak out against people or things in society you have developed a deep seated antipathy for over a long period of time. Look at your post! It isn’t even really a flame. You’re even somewhat polite about it. “Forgive me if I missed someone…” People who run around on newsgroups, forums, and message boards crying, “This guy’s a troll! That girl’s a troll!” need to lighten the hell up or at least find a hobby with more human contact. Remember that you are not obligated to read the posts of people you find annoying.
I’ve been roped in to some stupid posting in other forms, but it seems that this area is really full of it - I’m beginning to believe that this forum is a waist of time. I doubt I’ll be back.
Well, how can I now possibly live with myself. I want to apologize to all SDMB posters for being so callous and thoughtless to have driven out a worthwhile and insightful denizen like 1420. I now feel the need to deliver 40 lashes with a wet noodle to my own backside and then promptly restrict myself from bad thoughts regarding 1420. I also promise to send him a complete book of homonyms to avoid any of those embarrassing waste/waist issues again.
