if those are your examples, then I also encourage readers of this thread to go take a good look at them and judge for themselves.

why don't you make your points directly, jim, so they can be addressed directly, instead of going the slimy route by trading in innuendo? *** jim said:

again, then why don't you just ask directly, jim, instead of trying to imply there is subterfuge? i wrote a program that delivers those numbers. (what?, did you think i count them one by one?) if you want, i can have it generate some output that would give everyone irrefutable proof, jim. do you want that proof, jim?, or are you happy and satisfied just that you got a smear-job in? i guess i'm going to have to kill-file you again. not only do you actively fail to contribute value to the conversation, you actually make it worse. -bowerbird
