Your points are valid. But my problem is that I (and others) waste
time thinking we are in a real discussion before we eventually figure
out that we've been had. I can killfile idiots like Scarpotti but
others respond to them and I have to clear out more trash. Eventually
they do go away. I just try to hasten their decision to do so.
