> [@BigT](#): > > Now commence the attacks on me that I’m not going to bother responding to because I’ve made my point. No. Now where does that leave you? 😉 Meanwhile, OMG, and those like him, are welcome to be as assholish as they want, especially since they seem to have no clue just how counterproductive their behavior is. I’m just pointing out that such behavior (or, as **Starving Artist** repetitively, and inaccurately, puts it: “Giving as good as I get”) convinces no one of the correctness of their point of view. At best, it’s of no greater meaning than throwing tomatoes. ---

Seriously… this guy/gal can’t be serious… !!! Also, our good friend moonshot is proving beyond a shadow of a doubt in that thread that he/she is a DCL. ---
