You've found the time to call me a name I find more offensive than "asshole" 
but not to back up the offences you say I've committed to deserve it.  That 
is cowardice.

Neither you nor jbor seem to be able to ever let the other have the last 
word, so tired conversations become endless.  The pitch and intensity you 
cite is artificial.

Again, let's keep clear about your charge that I'm "jbor's sycophantic 
little lackey."   You can own your own impressions, but when you try to lay 
them on me, you'd better check yourself.  In this last little episode your 
impression was wrong and without basis.  And if you want to back it with 
some "history" then be specific.  Otherwise shut up.

You are the one causing hard feelings, bub.
