> **septimus** , this is totally inappropriate for Great Debates. You can insult people’s intelligence and call them trolls if you are posting in the Pit, but you cannot do it in any other forum. I’m giving you a formal warning for this post. Don’t do it again.

I want to apologize to all Dopers and especially to John Mace, Emacknight and grude. John Mace’s posts are often excellent, making my singling out of him particularly wrong. As excuse I can offer only an excess of Holiday intoxication.

I’d be happy to be friends with any of you, in real life, or, more likely, you’d not want to be my friend since IRL I’m still an obnoxious asshole. ☹
