Why don't we ALL chip in and buy Bill a nice thesaurus, so he can come up
with synonyms for "cavalier", "flippant", "irresponsible", and "inappropriate"?
Each of these words, all very subjective opinions, has permeated most of his
postings so far...and seem to form the backbone of his argument.  Maybe we
could also pay for him to take a course in discussion which relies on facts and
logical debate rather than repetitive babble, as well.

(Let's see...how many synonyms for "bore" can we find...)
