There's more in this thread that I'd like to reply to, but since I was just deemed arrogant and condescending, I'd like to address this first.

Thank you. You have done more to further prove my points than anyone else, and you deserve to be commended. How's that for condescending?

This is an exchange of ideas, and I have done nothing whatsoever to curb the free flow of those ideas. I have, however, provided my commentary, thoughts, and opinions with respect to those ideas in a fashion that is both intelligent and unapologetic. I will not now, nor ever, apologize for my beliefs. When you can prove that I have taken steps towarding inhibiting another individual from posting - or, better - from replying with intelligent, logic driven criticism of my writing, style, or opinion, then you can fairly and justly say that I am being condescending or arrogant.

Until you can do that, or until you can provide a legitimate addition to this discussion, please take your utterly useless, transparent passive-aggressive tactics elsewhere. Your attempt at villifying myself, Bill, and Jim further reeks with the same brand of hyprocrisy that drives your criticism of us.

When you can intelligently compete with the words and ideas of another, you win a debate. When you cannot, personal attacks and emotional pleas are the order of the day. Your post, Mr. Conway, and the myriad others like it, that offer no real contribution to our debate, serve only to appeal the ignorant masses, and represents the real drivel here.

Good day.
