[QUOTE=vibrotronica] Please stop your disrespectful taunting of other posters. [/QUOTE] Feel free to report my posts to the moderators. If they tell me I am being disrespectful, I will of course change my tone. ---

Won’t you first exhaustively assess the personal actions of the moderators to determine if they are sufficiently non-hypocritical to be listened to? ---

[QUOTE=brazil84] i.e. you can’t support your accusation. [/QUOTE] Stop disrespecting me by trying to put words in my mouth. You have repeatedly attacked other posters and me. I gave the latest example in my last post. I understand that you have been mislead by the hateful slanders of Nobel Laureate Al Gore’s political opponents, but why do you persist in disrespecting other posters? ---

> [@](#): > > have reported yours. There you go again, trying to stifle debate. But I’m glad you’ve given up trying to smear the good name of Nobel Prize Winner Al Gore and have turned your attacks to me. That means I have convinced you that Al Gore was worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize he was awarded. ---

[QUOTE=vibrotronica] There you go again, trying to stifle debate. [/quote] Actually, I’m trying to stifle what I see as inappropriate posts. > [@](#): > > That means I have convinced you that Al Gore was worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize he was awarded. Ummmmm . . . . Nope. ---

[QUOTE=brazil84] If you think the debate is over, you are free to stop posting to the thread. [/QUOTE] I’m pretty sure you’re immune to rational debate. You think global warming is a sham, and want to tear down Gore because of that. It’s pretty clear. You will listen to no argument or evidence to the contrary and are affecting hurt and outrage over his actions, even though they are perfectly fine. We get it. ---
