Are you implying that there are pseudo-IIDs among us? Shock!! Horror!! To keep this thread pure we must expose these villians [preferably with online photo coverage. **Expose a closet intellectual today!** ---

Methinks thou doth protest way way too much. ---

> [@MelCthefirst](#): > > Roger T and High C - nice attempt, but you know how to do fancy links, so not sure all this chest beating is coming off the way you imagined. Obviously, MelC, you are quite suspicious. Well, I thought to myself, what is a concise and equitable way of determining my eligibility? So [I posted in a GD thread.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=5281422&postcount=13) It is a relatively ‘light’ topic (read: not too complex, thought-wise). If I get run out on a rail in a short period of time with head in hand (i.e. I pass the test), I think my credentials are solid. Otherwise I am sorry for wasting your time. ---

So I’ve been away from the boards for a while, and I come back to this thread on the bottom page 4, oozing with curiosity as to what flaming rage that surely Shirley indulged in to warrant having posts removed. An hour later I realize that Shirley’s removals aren’t the end of the thread, and a whole other page is there to prove me wrong… ---

A few years ago, I decided to play around with attaching Estes model rocket engines to styrofoam gliders using duct tape. The first one was overpowered and went into a loop thus attacking me. The secon one flew like a cruise missle despite the only one of the three engines igniting, and my chopping about 4 inches off each wingtip. I shudder to think what would have happenned if all 3 engines went off…on the 4th of July…in a crowded park,with the police watching… Do i qualify? ---
