Archie, you should review your own postings here to verify that no one
has been able to hold any kind of rational, civil conversation with
you. You are so paranoid that every one of your postings include
retard references and spurious statements of your own superiority. I
tried on many occasions to deal with you on a more normal plane, but
you always dragged the conversation down to your lowest level. You
take an older dated attack as an example of how all future
communications should be viewed. Such an approach would mean that the
parties to any conflict are doomed to forever remain in that conflict.
Can you understand the futility of that kind of thinking? When you
stated openly that you have adopted a lifestyle of celibacy, I
responded with an inquiry of interest in how you came to make such a
significant decision. You responded with the overused "retard" and
"better-than-thou" suppositions and totally ignored any attempts to
converse earnestly. In addition, I was not the only person here who
reacted seriously to your admission of celibacy. There was at least
one other person who reacted to your statement by suspending all
"attacks" and moving into trying to converse with real purpose. I do
not recall who it was - possibly that Orville Forbush chap from .ro.
In any event, if you cannot put the name-calling, whimsical Usenet
nonsense on hold to have a serious conversation - even temporarily -
then I see no way that there can be any progress in better
understanding each other. Naturally, I am speaking only for myself,
but I suspect others feel likewise.

Just as a point of reference, I initially tried to hold a normal
conversation with you when I presented you with an opportunity to
attack a unique puzzle that I admitted I could not solve without
assistance. I viewed it as a challenge that was easily a win-win
proposition for you and that it would lead to future conversations
that went beyond the Usenet frivolity to that point. To this day, you
have refused to try your hand at a solution. Yet you continue to
state your intellectual superiority here and in other groups, failing
to recognize that any intellectual accomplishment must initiate with
intellectual curiosity. I still offer you that challenge as a token
of my desire to mend fences and embark on a more profound
communication path.

You have a few more aggressive messages herein that were all posted
over a period of about thirty minutes. I'll ignore them, holding out
this response as an olive branch that I hope you will react to
positively.
