However nitpicking your response may seem, I did realise that once I had
posted it and I thank you for your correction.
Now back to the matter in hand, why is it that on the internet people
find it more acceptable to swear, call people names and (god forbid)
threaten others? I've never understood that.
For me a much more damning response to a post you do not agree with is
one which refutes each and every point you intend to without resorting
to insults. You just debase your very own argument and make it much less
likely that you get your point across.
My 2 cents.
