my persistence demonstrates my "attitude" is even-keeled.

so if anything makes you "tired", that would be my tenacity.

you guys seem to forget that the future will have _hindsight_,
which is 20-20.  so the cyberarchaeologists down the line will
know that i was right all along, and they will correctly surmise
that my "very bad choice of expression" is a simple recitation of
the facts, related in a tone as mundane as reading the tax code.
the consistency of this tone -- over years -- indicates it is calm.

if that's what you "learned", then you will indeed be seen by
those future cyberarchaeologists as very dense school-kids...

again, 20-20.  remember?  history is written by the winners.

i "provoke" nothing.  your reactions are _your_ responsibility.
it's spelled out, very clearly, here on page 42 of the tax code...
